A quick checklist to diagnose why a subdomain shows the site under a folder path instead of staying at the subdomain. As described, the symptom is an immediate redirect; that means something along the path (DNS/host, web server, or the app itself) is issuing a redirect. Several replies here touched on file location and hosting settings — those are relevant, but start by proving where the redirect happens.

Use a couple of quick tests to capture the redirect and DNS mapping:

curl -I http://sub.example.com
dig +short sub.example.com

The curl header will show a 301/302 and a Location: value if an HTTP redirect is happening. dig (or nslookup) shows whether the subdomain is a CNAME/A record pointing at the parent domain or elsewhere.

Common causes and targeted fixes:

  • If the HTTP response is a redirect (Location header points to the folder), check for redirect rules in server config or in any htaccess-like files. Temporarily disable/rename that file to see if behavior changes.
  • If the redirect only happens after a full page load, check the site application (CMS or index file) for a configured site URL that points to the domain+folder and update it.
  • If DNS shows a CNAME to the root domain and the root has forwarding or a catch-all redirect, remove the forwarding or create a proper A/CNAME for the subdomain so it resolves independently.
  • Check hosting control-panel settings for domain forwarding or alias/parked domain options that can force a redirect.

Note about caching: 301 responses are cached by browsers and proxies. Test in a private window or with curl after fixing. As , and suggested, verify file placement and panel settings — but gather the curl/dig output first, then share those results with the host if you need support.

Create subdomain with the directory as, public_html/subdomain this will work for you and will not redirect.

Check your cpanel options under subdomain menu. upload website in public_html/cristi. Then try to open the subdomain. if the problem still exists contact your hosting provider.
