Use the following command to customize the document root:

Note: 'httpdocsnew' in this example is relative to the subscription root
/var/www/vhosts/example.com/or%plesk_vhosts%example.com. In other words, the absolute path to the new directory is/var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocsnewor%plesk_vhosts%example.com/httpdocsnew.
