Change hosting type from forwarded to hosted

[CraigD]

How do I change the hosting type of a domain from being forwarded to being hosted locally on the server without affecting things like the domains email accounts?

Just go to Web Site menu for domain and select Change hosting type there.

what about hosted domain, if I want forward instead of current hosted option to do some maintenance on website, I want to forward it.

If you change the hosting type to "forward" all files in the document root will be deleted. It's not a suited methode if you wanter to perform maintenance on a website. Instead configure forwarding with .htaccess (or nginx directives).

@jnasser to add: You cannot change the hosting type of your main domain if add-on domains exist in the subscription. As Kaspar suggests, add a line to .htaccess like

Redirect 302 / <redirect target URL here>
