Vendor Website Builder Add-on Installation & Configuration

Download the Vendor Website Builder Add-on #

Purchase and download the Vendor Website Builder add-on from the 6amTech Store. After purchasing, you will receive a ZIP file containing the add-on files.

Upload the Add-on #

  1. Log in to your Admin Panel.
  2. Navigate to Business Settings.
  3. Scroll down the sidebar and select System Add-ons.
  4. Upload the downloaded Vendor Website Builder ZIP file.

Activate the Add-on #

After the upload is completed successfully, click Activate to enable the Vendor Website Builder features.

Important

After activating the add-on, the Website Builder feature is disabled by default. You must enable it from the admin panel before vendors can use it.

Enable the Website Builder Feature #

Admin Configuration #

  1. Go to Business Settings.
  2. Locate the Vendor Website Builder option.
  3. Enable the Website Builder status.

Vendor Configuration #

After the admin enables the feature, each vendor who wants to use the Website Builder must also enable it:

  1. Log in to the Vendor Panel.
  2. Go to Store Config.
  3. Enable the Website Builder option.

Once both the Admin and the Vendor have enabled the feature, the Website Builder option will become available to the vendor.

Configure Wildcard Subdomain (Mandatory) #

This step is mandatory. The Vendor Website Builder requires a wildcard subdomain configuration so vendors can create and access their websites using subdomains.

  1. Create a Wildcard DNS A Record for your base domain.
    • Host: *
    • Type: A
    • Value: Your server’s public IP address
  2. Ensure your web server (Apache/Nginx) is configured to accept wildcard subdomains.

After the wildcard DNS is configured, vendors can use any available subdomain under your primary domain without requiring additional DNS records.

Example

  • Base Domain: example.com
  • Vendor Websites:
    • vendor1.example.com
    • restaurant.example.com
    • mystore.example.com

Note

Without the wildcard subdomain configuration, vendors will not be able to create or access their websites.

Configure Custom Domain #

If vendors want to use their own custom domain instead of a subdomain:

  1. Share your server’s public IP address with the vendor.
  2. Ask the vendor to point their domain’s A Record to your server’s public IP address.
  3. Once DNS propagation is complete, the vendor can connect the custom domain from the Website Builder settings.

Example

  • Vendor Domain: www.myshop.com
  • DNS Record:
    • Type: A
    • Host: @
    • Value: Your server’s public IP address

Note

DNS propagation may take up to 24–48 hours, although it is often completed much sooner.
