Creating & managing websites

🌐 Creating & managing websites

Site types, folder layout, cloning to staging, and deleting safely

Create a website

On Websites click “Add website”, type the domain without http:// (e.g. example.com) and choose a type. Its own system user, PHP-FPM pool and vhost are created for it.

Type	Use it for
PHP	Any PHP site — upload your own code or install an app later
WordPress	Auto-installs the latest WordPress with an admin account (password min. 8 characters)
Laravel	A Laravel project — the web root already points at `public`
Static HTML	Plain HTML/CSS/JS with no PHP — the lightest and fastest option
Node.js	A Node app you run yourself; the panel reverse-proxies to it — you must give the port

Pick a database at creation: none / MariaDB (MySQL) / PostgreSQL / SQLite
Extra domains (aliases) can be added at creation; www. is added for you
An administrator can assign the site to a member — owners only ever see their own sites

⚠️ If a database is created, its password is shown only once in the confirmation message — copy it straight away. If you lose it, use “Reset pw” on the Databases page.

How a site is laid out

Folder	What it is
`public/`	The web root — what visitors see. Put `index.php` or `index.html` here
`logs/`	This site's access / error / php logs
`tmp/`	PHP temporary files (sessions, uploads)
`trash/`	The file manager's recycle bin — deleted files land here first

Every tab on a site

Tab	Link	Manual
🏠 Overview	`/site/[โดเมน]`	Status, bandwidth, WordPress and shortcuts
📁 Files	`/site/[โดเมน]/files`	File manager
📜 Logs	`/site/[โดเมน]/logs`	The last 300 lines of access / error / php
🗄 Database	/db-pick	Databases
🔒 TLS	`/site/[โดเมน]/tls`	SSL / HTTPS
🌐 DNS	`/site/[โดเมน]/dns`	DNS
🌿 Subdomains	`/site/[โดเมน]/subdomains`	Subdomains & aliases
🔗 Aliases	`/site/[โดเมน]/aliases`	Subdomains & aliases
🐙 Git	`/site/[โดเมน]/git`	Deploy from Git
📡 FTP	`/site/[โดเมน]/ftp`	FTP / FTPS
🖥 SSH / SFTP	`/site/[โดเมน]/access`	SSH and terminal
⚙️ Advanced	`/site/[โดเมน]/advanced`	PHP version, clone, uninstall apps, owner, delete

Switch the PHP version

The Advanced tab → “PHP Version” card. Pick a version and apply — it takes effect immediately for that one site only, with no rebuild.

Clone a site for staging

The Advanced tab → “Clone website”. Give a destination domain; files and database are copied and the copy gets its own system user and PHP pool.

⚠️ The clone gets a new database, so update the app's config (e.g. wp-config.php) with the new credentials — and remember to point DNS and issue a certificate for the new domain.

Delete a website

The Advanced tab → “Danger zone”. Unticked, only the vhost configuration goes. Tick “also delete files, system user and database” and everything is gone for good.

⚠️ Always take a backup first — a purge cannot be undone from the panel.
