  2. Breeze improvements - It''s a great plugin but...

    Integrating Breeze Plugin with CloudFlare to allow per site CloudFlare purging.

    Integrated Redis Cache options without needing a seperate WP plugin

    Allow automated Purge of all Cache's on Page or Post update for Redis, Varnish, Cloudways CDN and CloudFlare

    An up to date help file documenting exactly how to setup Breeze for Wordpress, with typical page rules and syntax examples for each section. The current Help files refer back to W3TC which is only helpful for users not using the Cloudways in house Cache Breeze.

  3. Allow Access to the Elastic Email Dashboard so that Automatic Bounce Handler Webhooks and other settings can be updated

    We should be able to get access to our Elastic Email panel to adjust the settings of how our account behaves...
    I need to place an email bounce handler in the settings so that my CRM can automatically update bounced emails.

    We should be able to configure it to work with our CRM. I use FluentCRM which has an automatic bounce handler that works with Elastic Email
    There is currently no way to set the bounce handler up to automatically update my CRM when an email bounces. It uses webhooks
    I need to place this webhook in the bounce handler.

  4. Allow us to set our default admin url as most of us shouldn't be using the default "/wp-admin" for security reasons

    For Wordpress and Woocommerce apps we change the default "/wp-admin" URL so any bots that get through can't find it. But the admin link in cloudways stays as the default, is there a way we can make this editable? Interested to see if anyone else would benefit from this.

    Thanks :)

  6. Better Breeze descriptions

    The "Advanced Options" page of this plugin does not properly explain how to specify URLs. Please add examples and/or include a link to a KB article.

    Take the "Exclude CSS" field. I have no idea which of the following are valid:
    - https://example.com/resource/
    - https://example.com/resource
    - //example.com/resource
    - example.com/resource
    - /resource
    - example.com/resource/*
    - example.com/resource/(.*)
    - example.com\/resource\/(.*)
    - /example.com\/resource\/(.*)/

    How do I use this plugin? Please add more detailed instructions.

  7. add the ADMIN PANEL to the Staging environment

    Staging environment should have the same ADMIN PANEL as regular site. I cannot seem to login to my Wordpress dashboard in the Staging environment. I am using the same User and Password as in the environment that I just created the staging environment from. The first thing I tried was disabling the PASSWORD PROTECTION but that did not help. I won't have anything to Push to production until I can make updates to staging.

  8. WP-CLI commands when creating an application

    Would it possible when creating a wordpress application using the CloudWays API that you can specify some WP-CLI commands that run after creation so you can install plugins and set other options with an API call? This saves having to SSH into the new application.

  9. Enable Cloudways Migrator to include migration from local host (PC) etc

    The CW migration plugin won't allow migration from local host. I understand Cloudways is used for production purposes but some people still like to develop on localhost PC etc. It would be advantageous if this restriction was fixed.

  10. More options when creating a staging site. (Set domain, SEO options, password protection))

    When I create a staging site for a client to work on, I always have to go change the domain name to staging.domain.com, disable password protection, and log into the site to discourage search engines from indexing the staging site.

    It would be nice to have a few fields that are optional when creating the staging site, eg:

    "Set staging site domain name" (Text field)
    "Discourage Search Engines" (Tickbox)
    "Disable Password Protection" (Tickbox)

  12. Default wordpress config

    Please consider modifying the default wordpress wp-config file to include. I have had to manually add that to every install so that visitor IP's are showing up correctly.

    if ( isset( $SERVER[ "HTTPXFORWARDEDFOR" ] ) ) {
    $SERVER[ 'REMOTEADDR' ] = $SERVER[ "HTTPXFORWARDEDFOR" ];
    }

  13. Fix / improve the interface on the wordpress migrate plugin

    Currently the plugin will delete all the info from all the fields if you submit and it finds an error. In the UX world, this is considered undiluted evil. Why is the plugin punishing me?

    Furthermore, the UX writing is profoundly unclear. The field marked "application folder" is actually for the MYSQL database name. Who would ever figure that out?

    If you really want to make it good, don't force the user to enter any of this stuff. Just make an "export settings for the migration plugin" button. It can create a key code that includes all the settings. Copy,…

  14. Generate Wordpress users directly from the CW Dashboard

    I change my password on a regular basis. So, when I clone apps, the password given by the CW Dashboard doesn't work. It would be great to force the system to create that user.

  15. Update the Breeze plugin to include a setting to clear cache from a mobile browser (It's currently only possible on desktop)

    I ran into trouble today when I made an important time-sensitive update to a site while away from my desktop and needed to clear cache in order for the update to show on the front-end.

    Accessing the wp-admin via mobile, on the mobile browser does not show the Breeze top admin menu, thus I was unable to clear the cache via mobile. I had to get on support chat, provide the support tech with admin login details and ask them to clear the Breeze cache for me. This is less than ideal.

    Please update the Breeze Plugin to provide buttons…

  16. Plugin or snippet to put the server name on wp-admin toolbar

    This might be useful for agency owners like me who have a lot of sites on different servers on Cloudways. A simple drop in plugin or snippet that would display the NAME of the Cloudways server in the WordPress admin toolbar.

    No settings. Just display the pretty name of the server.

    A simple plugin like this would be something we could deploy the IWP on all of our sites very quickly.

    We now have 10 servers, and almost anytime I have to jump into SFTP, I've got to first look at my list of what server is this site on.…

  17. Support Multi-Tenant Wordpress setups.

    One of the newly popular ways to set up Wordpress is in a Multi-Tenant setup. This means one instance of Wordpress runs multiple sites, but each with their own DB, etc.

  18. ability to include certain files/folders on staging

    much like the exclude button under staging management - it would be useful to select exactly what file you want to update for two reasons, one deployment would be speedier and less likely to cause any unexpected or unwanted updates

  20. Database optimization service

    Would be great if Cloudways had a premium service where they would optimize the WordPress database by cleaning up old plugin data bloat.
