i want my subdomain to point to /api instead of /public_html/api how would i do this?

 

(or alternatively change main domain to public_html/root)

You can't. We require all domains to have a root inside of public_html. Similarly, your account's main domain always points to public_html itself, and there is no way to change that.

 

What you need to do is change your main domain to something you won't use (see http://heliohost.org/classic/support/scripts/domain to do that), then add your "real" main domain as an addon domain with ~/public_html/root as its docroot. Note that if you're using a something.heliohost.org subdomain, you can't do this and are stuck with it being your account's main domain.

I am using my own domain but I don't want to bother with the hassle of setting everything up again, but thanks anyway!
