  1. Add dashboard for applications

    We have a console for Servers, where we can list all of our servers, enter each one and see the list of Applications on that server (by hitting application management and then viewing the drop-down list)

    I'd like a console for viewing all applications, independent of server, so we could find a specific site without having to trudge through each server screen.

    It'd simply act as a list of shortcuts directly into the Application Management screen for each.

    At the end of the day, we only care about our Applications, that we need servers to host them is incidental, ideally…

  3. Add AWS UK London

    AWS has launched a new data centre in the UK, London. I think this would be a great addition to Cloudways. Thanks.

  5. Drupal 8 support plan

    With Drupal 8 release imminent (https://www.drupal.org/node/2605142) could you publish a schedule for supporting Drupal 8 installation as an option, as well as Drush 8? We don't envisage building client sites with it for a few months at least, but would welcome knowing your plans for supporting it, and having the option to start testing.

    This is now live. You can launch Drupal 8, choosing Drupal application and then the 8 version (you can deploy Drupal 7 too).

    You can now deploy Magento 2 on Cloudways Platform. Choose it from the application list when adding a new application.

  7. Add Blacklist section in your security tab

    The current server management console, has a n area where we can whitelist our IP address to avoid lockout problems. But could we also get for our servers a blacklist option?

    There are multiple WordPress sites I manage. And you have no idea how many hacking attempts I get daily. Being able to block the ip addresses from where these attempts are coming from...could really help us secure our WP sites even more.

  8. OCSP stapling

    Please switch on OCSP stapling. This feature makes access to HTTPS sites faster in case of OSCP present, so avoid clients requests to CA to verify certs.

  9. Easy integration with cloudflare installing mod_cloudflare

    It is possible to make cloudways work with cloudflare providing an additional level of protection against DDoS attacks and catching. It is just an issue of making cloudflare DNS point to the public address of the application on cloudways.

    But there is an issue that needs to be resolved. The IP address that cloudways sees on $SERVER['REMOTEADDR'] is cloudflare IPs and not the clients IPs. This has a server impact specially in Ëurope with the tax on virtual products where the country of the customer needs to be verified by his IP (plus another non conflicting prove).

  10. Option to download a full application backup from console (web files + database)

    I want downloadable backups to transfer them to some other server or our inhouse server.

    It is very important to have different locational or different provider to have my backup
    as somefine day if something happens to your infra (i really don't wish) but data is crucial and i want to be dead sure
    i have 5 customers to refer to but with out option of thirdparty backup they will not get to you

    This has now been completed. In Server tab, under Backup section you can now enable “Local Backups”.

    This will take, additionally to the off-site backup, a local application backup (both files and database) in the local_backup sub-folder of each application. Just one backup set (latest) will be stored there.

    You can automate downloading backups to wherever you want via SSH/SFTP.

    We are going to create KB’s and a blog post related to this new feature. Will post links here when done.

  11. Fallback to SMS or Backup Codes (like Google) on Two-Factor Authentication issues

    Lost access to TFA authentication should fall back to SMS or Backup Codes (like Google) rather than a quick comment on the chat.

  12. Fix privacy and security issue on fresh WordPress installs

    When adding a fresh WordPress App, the default admin account Cloudways creates adopts the account holders email address. This is also becomes the display name by default, showing up on the front-end, exposing the account holders email address involuntarily. The display name should be set to something other than the email address.

  13. Slow initial console login when having lots of servers

    I have around 30-35 servers on my dashboard. When we login, it takes around 1 minute to show the list. So everytime I log into CloudWays, it takes around 1 minute to show my server list...It's comming slower and slower as I add new servers.....

  14. Cloudways should add DDoS protection service

    DDoS is a common problem now, maybe Cloudways can add a DDoS Mitigation service and upgrade their Network hardware to secure against Level 3 DDoS attacks

  15. White-label application URL

    To me not having a white-label Cloudways application is absolutely of no concern. The only concern I have (because I offer clients managed Wordpress hosting) is the fact that the application-url is not white-label. If only I could have my brand name in stead of Cloudways I am done.

  16. SSH On Off Button

    A simple button to turn ssh on and off, ssh can be turned off until the admin needs to use it so it adds an additional level of security straight on the dashboard. Thanks

  19. Option to DELETE Team Member.

    Love the ability to add team member. However there's no way to DELETE a team member. Once this team member is added, his/her email is forever associated as a team member to one Cloudway account and there's no way to use this email username for another Cloudways account. Yikes!

    This is now completed.

    Under Server Settings & Packages section (Server tab) you can replace mysql with mariadb.

    Please note that it is your responsibility to ensure
    that all the applications in the server will work with the deployed database.

    Enjoy!
