Hello!

I'm use Vesta CP and it s perfect!
But i'm have question: i'm need automatic subdomains 4 levels, example:

<id>.subdomain.domain.com

Where id is generated value.
Do you have any idea?
Thank you!

You can use the API to generate your domains.
Or if all the subdomains need to point to one web directory (ex.: 1.subdomain.domain.com, 2.subdomain.domain.com need to point to subdomain.domain.com) You can create a wildcard alias. (*.subdomain.domain.com)

In your DNS section, you can create a '*' (wildcard) A record.

Hello!
Thank you for answer!
Wildcard record in DNS i'm already have and it works, but when i'm visit this domain, Vesta CP return:

default.domain

How i can add wildcard subdomain in control panel? When i'm trying add *.subdomain.site.ru i'm get message:

Subdomain name is not valid :(

Thank you for reply!

Normally you can add a wildcard domain as an alias of a web domain.
