Provide UI controls for ModSecurity e.g. SecRequestBodyNoFilesLimit and SecRequestBodyLimit
Twice this week I have needed to adjust the SecRequestBodyNoFilesLimit and SecRequestBodyLimit ModSecurity settings on my client's servers. It would be great if there were a UI way for me to adjust this without bugging support. It would be great for Cloudways too.

This is a very practical and well-thought-out suggestion. Having UI controls for options like SecRequestBodyNoFilesLimit and SecRequestBodyLimit would be extremely helpful for developers and system administrators who manage multiple servers. It would reduce the need to rely on support for routine configuration changes and allow faster troubleshooting and deployment.
A simple and secure interface for managing these ModSecurity limits would improve efficiency while still maintaining strong protection. It would be a great addition for Cloudways users.
On a side note, I also run a small tech and gaming-related site where I share useful tools and resources. If anyone is interested, you can check it out here:

Hopefully, this feature gets added soon as it would be beneficial for both Cloudways and its customers.

Absolutely agree that having UI controls for things like ModSecurity (e.g., SecRequest body limits) would give admins much more flexibility without having to dig into configs manually. Better UI = faster adjustments and fewer errors. Tools that simplify everyday tasks really help streamline workflows kinda like when I needed to check and clear traffic fines quickly in the UAE using an https://evgfinecheck-ae.com/ portal instead of going through a long process. Thanks for suggesting this improvement! 👍🛡️

Great breakdown of how SecRequestBodyLimit and SecRequestBodyNoFilesLimit can be exposed via UI controls—this kind of visibility really helps balance security with usability on high-traffic platforms. We’ve seen similar tuning challenges on dynamic sites like https://jeetbangla.casino/
, where adjusting request body limits thoughtfully can prevent false positives without weakening protection. -

agreed was searching everywhere on how to change it but was not possible even though the AI chat bot was convinced it was
