upgrade all New Relic Lite accounts to Standard Free Plan
I think you need to get your partnership updated with NewRelic so you offer free standard plans instead of lite: https://discuss.newrelic.com/t/faq-how-is-the-partnership-standard-account-different-from-the-lite-account/3152
This is important as Standard brings great features:
- allows monitoring of wordpress plugins and themes.
- web transaction summary so you can tune effectively
- Database analysis of poorest performing calls
- 1 week of data in a single view
- Embeddable chartsThere is an option that says "upgrade to standard" in New Relic app monitoring under Wordpress and Database. But the page forwards to the CouldWays upgrade to Pro page. So this is in your hands…

Add elastic email log in console
I really like how easy it is to use elastic email in Cloudways. However, there is no way to find out if emails were sent/delivered. We have to chat with support to check if an email was sent.
It would be nice to have an interface in console to view sent email logs.
35 votesHello
We have added the integration on Cloudways Platform, users have the ability to download logs from the platform along with domain verification for
transactional email please refer to https://support.cloudways.com/en/articles/5130879-how-to-activate-the-elastic-email-add-on for more detailsCloudways Team

Add multiple domain ssl support for a single application.
I have WordPress MU and I have multiple ssl certificates for the multiple domains but I can't use it within one application, therefore I have to create multiple wordpress instances for the domains.
Very annoying that I can't use WordPress MU with multiple domains with multiple single domain ssl certifications.
31 votesWe have added a support of SAN in our platform, which will allow you to have a support for multiple domains using single SSL certificate. Having SAN available there won’t be a need of getting separate SSL for multiple domains mapped to a single website.
Moreover, work is already in progress for Let’sEncrypt (freeSSL) to support multiple domains using single SSL.

Support wildcard DNS, so Wordpress Multisite auto create sub domains
As it is now, we have to manually create the sub domains or use sub directories, which isn't the best solution. Personally I don't have time or even want to do this manually, and I guess this is the case for most people that are interested in Multisites.
9 votesAs Todd said (in new platform) when using a Custom Certificate, you can just generate a wildcard certificate (*.mydomain.com), that you can use for WP Multisites, or any other needs you have. Wildcard certificates are not yet supported via Let’s Encrypt certificate authority.

Add additional locales
Allow generation of additional locales.
Currently only
- C
- C.UTF-8
- en_US.utf8
- POSIX
are generated on the system.
We need country specific locales for internationalization (e.g. money formats, date formats, etc.)
9 votesYou can now set your chosen locale under Settings & Packages → Advances → Locales.

Use Let's Encrypt certificate for Cloudways database manager (8082 port) instead of a self signed cert
Since we all can use Let's Encrypt for free (basic needs), why don't you automatically setup LE cert for database manager rather than using self signed cert which gives browser warnings.

Allow account owners/master user to create application credentials directly
I should be able to have full control over my team members. if i want to set their login password i should be able to do it, but as it stands right now I have to bother my user and ask them to perform a password creation step that they shouldn't have to.
I should be able to go to them and say "here is your access" as I don't want them to have access to the Cloudways console, I just want them to have an SFTP login, thats it. Requiring them to login and create their own credentials is…
27 votesThank you for all your votes. We have now made it possible for account owners/master users to create as many application credentials as they like directly, without the need of creating team members first.
Please note that SSH access for applications will need to be enabled from within “Application Settings > General” in order for SSH to work for any application credentials created this way.

Auto-Cleaning Option for Logs (Error & Access)
On top of not being able to delete logs ourselves (which should be made possible - as suggested by other feature request), it would be massively useful if there was an option to set a timer for logs (both error & access) to be auto-cleaned.
Even if we can control the error logs to a degree (by fixing the application errors), we can't fully control access logs which is a problem because it literally means that the disk space for app is constantly growing - and if you don't pay attention it could take your site down due to full…

Specify time of day for backups
It would be nice to be able to specify a general time of day for backups to be made. Something like morning, noon, night. Of course to be able to pick the exact hour would be even better.
Right now backups are being made around 9pm local time on my server and that is making things very slow whenever I work in the admin area of wordpress, which is around 9pm in the evening.
Thanks

Fix Wordfence issue that stops the firewall from working
The latest version of WordFence adds a firewall. This requires that WordFence is able to write to the /wp-content/wplogs directory, but this is owned by the wrong account when created, causing the firewall to throw up an error. The 'Reset Permissions' button doesn't fix this ownership issue either.
2 votesWordfence has been removed from the default deployments. Let us know if issues persist when deploying outside of the base install.

DISABLE_WP_CRON by default
Would define a trustable WP Cron for low traffic sites, as It won't depend on visits any more.
And also and no less important, High Traffic sites would have a stability boost.So, by default add this in wp-config.php
define('DISABLEWPCRON', 'true');And automatically setup an actual cron job in the App Console.

HTTP2 is now fully supported and available for all browsers. It was activated yesterday.
Customers who already have HTTP2 enabled in their servers, need to disable and re-enable it to update browser support. Other customers, just need to enable it (done from Server Settings in NEW CONSOLE).

Allow users to rename application folder
It's great that we can now have a single SFTP account to access all applications on each server. However the randomly generated application folder names, while secure, are not user-friendly. By the time I have looked up which folder corresponds to each application, I might as well have set up an FTP account for each application.
Give us the ability to rename application folders to something meaningful would make the functionality much more useful
