Changing the Help Center URL

I'd like to change the Help Center URL but didn't want to go trough all the struggle for host mapping because I don't mind keeping the 'zendesk' on it.

But I didn't find anything about changing it without being trough host-mapping.

Example:

The actual URL is "x.zendesk.com/hc" and I'd like to change it to "y.zendesk.com/hc".

The "x" was defined when the Zendesk account was activated and there is no way to change it after? Is that correct?

Hey, you should be able to change this from Admin > Settings > Account > Branding

Hi Aron!

I'm editing this comment to amend the info I gave you...the initial article I linked was incorrect!

Before you change your subsomain there are a number of things you need to take into consideration! We've got a couple articles that go over this for you:
* Renaming your subdomain: the side effects
* Understanding how changing the Help Center subdomain affects SSL

The details on how to change the subdomain are in that first article. That should get you started!
