Add an Admin User

To create an Admin user you must be an Admin user yourself and have the permission to add other Admin users.

A Sub-Admin is an Admin user created by another Admin user (the Sub-Admin users parent). The Admin user creating the account has control over the access given to a Sub-Admin that they create. Effectively, they are the same - a Sub-Admin user can have the same rights as the Admin user.

    Domain's Limit

    How many domains this admin can add. If you want to limit the number to two domains, then you can set the limit to 2, otherwise use 0 for unlimited domains.

    The limit is shared with your own limit. For example, if your license is of 20 domains, you cannot set the limit to 0 for a Sub-admin. You can set it to 20, however this means that you will be unable to add domains on your Admin account and all new added domains will be attributed to the Sub-admin account.
