The reason behind this is that, simply put, it’s very easy to make a mistake when adding or editing DNS and subsequently it’s possible to cause significant issues with an account. Many of you have asked, however, if/when this will become available – so we’ve decided to open this option up for everyone now.
The edit the DNS for your domain, simply login to your cPanel account and look for ‘Advanced DNS Zone Editor’. Resellers (with WHM Access) can still edit all of their clients DNS via WHM directly – or can edit it in this fashion. You can now add/edit A records, CNAME and TXT records. MX records will still need to be edited via the ‘MX Entry’ option of cPanel.
As one of your customers who wanted this feature, thank you!
I can imagine what trust this takes in your customers to open that up, as it is indeed easy for someone to really screw things up. I would have no idea what that’s like personally however…but I have this friend, yeah that’s the ticket…this friend, who really botched up one of his sites years ago messing with the DNS.
