feature request when adding new domains

[curtisb]

This should be a fairly simple request and something that can be of use to many, I hope.

As of right now when directadmin creates a domain under a username there is a symbolic link from the users
public_html -> ./domains/domain.com/public_html

This is great, but you cant see the other domains you add later. You can only see the one domain.

I think it would be useful if the public_html was a directory and under that directory make the symbolic links to each new domain when they are created, as such:

/home/user/public_html
|___domain.com -> ../domains/domain.com/public_html/
|___domain2.com -> ../domains/domain2.com/public_html/

This way you can view each domain under the user as such:

http://www.serverbox.com/~user/domain.com
http://www.serverbox.com/~user/domain2.com

being able to view each domain like this has been useful to me this way I can view the domain and make sure everything is working before moving DNS.

This is just a request, I have been doing this manually since I started using DirectAdmin and thought that it might be a useful feature no matter how simple it may be.


Thanks for your time.

I dont get the screwed up structure of a users webspace. Why bother with all these symbolic links. Simply create a /home/user/public_hmtl direct and forget all the fancy footwork. What is the purpose of creating symbolic links all over the place?
