Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/0xJacky/nginx-ui/issues/141

Would it be possible to provision a website by filling custom form in UI?
At the moment I'm using a script, but it requires me to log in to SSH every single time.

`#!/bin/sh
echo "Domain:"
read domain
mkdir /var/www/html/$domain

touch /etc/nginx/sites-available/$domain.conf

cat </etc/nginx/sites-available/$domain.conf
server {
listen 80;
root /var/www/html/$domain;
index index.html index.htm;
server_name $domain www.$domain;
error_page 404 /404.html;

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}

}
EOF

ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/$domain.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
systemctl restart nginx`

Hello, I believe there may be some misunderstanding. If you're looking to add a new site configuration, you can easily do so by navigating to 'Manage Sites > Add Site', and subsequently filling out the provided form. The Nginx UI will then generate a configuration file and place it in the /etc/nginx/sites-available directory.

Following this, the program will activate your new site configuration by creating a soft link to the /etc/nginx/sites-enabled directory. Finally, Nginx will be automatically reloaded by Nginx UI.
