  1. Save push settings

    I push my staging app live once every week. However, since it's a Wordpress app, I don't want to push database tables that store contact form data and comments because those get populated with real-user data on the live app, not on staging. Before August 2024, when I manually chose which tables to push and which not, my choice was saved for future pushes (I've been doing this for over a year). Now, I have to manually uncheck tables for each push. Furthermore, for every table I check or uncheck, the tables list scrolls back to its beginning. In other…

  4. Alphabetize the application dropdown

  6. Notification History

    While waiting for an event (ssl issuance, server clone, application clone) there's great feedback when the event is completed. It would be great if we could see that event history from the Cloudways dashboard for a while ... last 24 hours or so. I stepped away from my computer and then when I returned couldn't remember what I was working on, as the notification appeared and then dismissed itself.

    If notification history isn't practical, maybe an option to manually dismiss notifications?

  8. Allow adding labels to Applications, like current stagings also have

    In this way you can also label a application as [test] or [dev] or [prod] or [live].

    Maybe additionally add multiple labels or kind of labels?
    For example a general label as suggested above and a status label maybe.

    Status label cloud be that a application is ready for [archive] , [transfer], [deletion], [moving], [blueprint] etc.

  9. ability to change app type

    If an app is set to PHP, it can't be easily changed to WordPress app. Some apps we have were set up as the wrong type, and simply need changed. This is also to better avail of Cloudflare Enterprise page caching, which only appears to work for WordPress apps.

    The current process requires creating a new app and migrating over, which is a much longer process. It seems like, in theory, it could be much easier/quicker.

  10. Push/Pull Sites Between Staging Environments

    We typically set up two "staging" environments for each of our projects (labelled Dev and Staging) in addition to the Live/Production environment. This setup is a critical part of our development workflow, allowing for internal testing and client reviews before live deployment.

    Currently, the platform only supports pushing and pulling site files and databases between a Staging and Production environment. However, it would provide a significant enhancement to our workflow if we could have push/pull operations between the two staging sites (Dev and Staging).

    This functionality would allow our developers to quickly move updates from Dev to Staging from within…

  11. Ability to create a staging site without cloning an application

    Currently, you have to create an application and then clone it to create a staging site. For every new client we bring on we have to create 2 applications and only 1 is getting used. Would prefer to just be able to click "create new staging environment" and then start building. If we land 10 clients next month there's 20 applications and half are just in the way.

    Also would be nice if we could launch a staging environment with a prebuilt version of WordPress that we have already modified and keep improving.

  12. Set default password lengths to 15 characters, not 10

    Currently, the default application password length is 10 characters. I suggest that should be 15 in 2023.

  13. Multiple Lower Applications

    We love the staging feature, but we really need more than one for our pipeline, specifically a dev environment we can easily pull the prod database onto just like the staging enironement, is this on the roadmap anywhere?

  14. Allow custom application URLs upon creation

    Upon creating an application it would be great to have the ability to create a custom name for the installation (example myclientsite.cloudwaysapps.com) instead of wordpress-XXXXXX-3319779.cloudwaysapps.com.
    This would make it much easier to remember and more professional looking when dealing with client sites.
    Thanks

  15. Reset Wordpress

    Cloudways makes it very easy to delete a WordPress application. However, I have to perform the same steps (assigning domain name, SSL certificate etc) when reinstalling a fresh WordPress installation.

    I would like to suggest a reset button for wordpress which would reinstall a clean wordpress installation and database, so the domain and SSL would not need to change.

  16. Automatic/ Scheduled Application-level Backups

    At the moment, we can schedule server-level backups but can only take manual application-level backups.

    As a business owner with multiple websites, this is not ideal. When one website needs to be restored, I have to restore all and lose money when they are down (which they didn't need to be) and time from all the lost work.

    It would be great to enable automatic/ scheduled application-level backups instead. This would enable us to only restore the application that needs to be restored (instead of forcing us to restore all), and we could also set different backup schedules to discriminate…

  19. Cloudflare bandwidth reporting and the ability to block traffic.

    It would be nice to get Cloudflare Enterprise bandwidth reporting. For example list top bandwidth utilizing IPs and a feature to block traffic.

  20. Ability for CW Cloudflare Enterprise to auto-refresh for html sites.

    Ability for CW Cloudflare Enterprise to know when html sites content is updated so it is delivered fresh - eg - html, images, js, etc. Not sure if thats possible but perhaps there could be an ini files or text file that depecited version for it to look for.
