Websites > New subsite

Create new websites and directories.

New websites or directories can be created from the Websites > New subsite option in the main menu.

A website differs from a directory, only in so far as it will have its own domain name, whereas a directory will be a subsite of the global or default site, set up in your iCentric project.
