Hi There,
I registered with http://www.vidilife.com/
with username: doggie
then the system automatically generated a sub-domain.
doggie.vidilife.com
I was wondering if this was possible with CB?
Thanks all,
D

don't think it's related to CB but more to your hosting features.
Not a lot have that feature. Otherwise, you may write or use a script that deals with CPanel APIs.

If you own your server, you can configure your apache url rewriting engine to fetch data from CB tables.

Yes this is possible. I answered this question before.
First of all, it is not really a subdomain but it is using mod-rewrite.
For this to work you need a dns server that directs *.domain.com to domain.com
Then you modify the mod_rewrite line for user homepages and it picks up the rest.
Good luck

I just did it on my website..
http://trail.djtrail.nl http://tester.djtrail.nl etc etc
the rewrite line i used was
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ([^/]+).djtrail.nl [NC]
RewriteCond %1 !www$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.djtrail.nl/%1 [L]
+ the old rewrite line for homepages makes:
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userProfile&user='$1' [L]
for this to work i first had to ditch all my real subdomains (you can have both if you want a headache).. and make *.djtrail.nl go to djtrail.nl via dns settings.
