So, decided it was time to get back to DA and start learning how to manage it properly. The non-compete after the sale of my hosting business is ending in the not too distant future. Maybe, might, could, possibly do something with DA in the future…

(Quote) Makes sense, I guess someone like DO adding it to their marketplace will end up generating more support that you care for which of course takes you all away from other tasks such as improving the panel.
-
(Quote) Licensing is always the answer. I suspect they would only offer it if it can be installed and activated without any up-front cost to them. A bit like cPanel and Plesk. DO and Vultr offer both but cPanel is a trial period, Although Vultr …

@DA_Mark Any interest from larger cloud providers, DO, Vultr, Hetzner or others in them offering licences?

(Quote) Let me get your coat for you.

(Quote) If Michael is too expensive then I take it things like uptime are optional.

(Quote) Totally, stay away from anything that 99% of the time will make you beholden to someone because they helped you out with the site.

Oh, missed this thread entirely, would have taken that 45 EUR plan for the 4GB ram. Currently considering just setting up my own DA panel for my personal sites instead of using cPanel at Hostmantis. Never mind. I do have another VPS with IH but n…

(Quote) Well, maybe a bit more, BuyVM and Ramnode as well.

(Quote) That's hilarious.

I mean, this is the low-end part of the world. These kinds of events can be shrugged off easily by many members here. Even the host replies to say he thinks it is hilarious. It's not. Personally, I think the initial response was bad enough a…

What are your essential go-to plugins for WordPress these days? Caching and optimisation in particular but nice to haves that adds something to the site.

(Quote) Had experience of HostMantis in Singapore, very good to be fair. Use their coupon WHT25OFF for a recurring discount.
-
(Quote) Absolutely, want to focus on sites these days now I have more time. If I use a VPS/Dedi I tinker, then I tinker so much I forget that I am supposed to be developing a site. cPanel/JetBackup really is a sweet spot solution. Both for ease …
-
(Quote) Yeah, I am trying to get into a mindset of trusting a shared/reseller provider for some sites so I can do exactly that, focus on the websites these days and stop being a whiny little bitch about trust. I have real trust issues when it comes…
-
(Quote) Indeed, perhaps I am holding on to historic prejudices with WP that in order to provide the functionality and end result you want, bloated is exactly how it will end up. I guess I just need to get on and replace a site properly with it and …

Apologies another question, really getting back into WP. Do you find it is better to run WP on a VPS/Dedi or does a shared/reseller at a decent provider not hold it back in comparison to a VPS/Dedi?

Bootstrap has so many tools these days but I found myself using tailwind more these days, there are pros and cons with it but I like working with it more than Bootstrap.

So I finally got some time to try out WordPress again properly. Shit so much improved since I last really used it. The editor is remarkably good, seem to recall a lot of upset about Gutenberg when it first came out. The free version of the Blocks…
-
(Quote) As much as panels are convenient they can be a hassle, it is just one more thing to learn and also cause you issues that you then have to learn how to fix. If you are just running personal sites and have a good backup solution a VPS without…

(Quote) I think she just bought the yearly single website licence, all she needs to be fair. As I mention on the other chat, she is over the moon with it, says it gives every option she wanted and does it all visually so no messing about. Quick an…

And we have a very clear winner, it's Blocksy. I am impressed with it enough that I am going to throw up a test WP install just to play around with it. Sarah is delighted, she is already got the basic set up she wants and just needs to make i…
-
(Quote) Thanks, this is looking more like her thing.
-
(Quote) Well what she is looking at ranges between $40-$80 so I think that should pretty much cover anything. Don't need this for multiple sites, just one. I was looking at GeneratePress, but it appeared to be a bit less visual to change/buil…
-
Looking for some suggestions from you WP pros. Still helping out a friend, they are not technical nor a designer so a complete site builder like Elementor, Beaver etc are not really ideal. She just needs a theme that is well supported but provides…

When did it become something for the end-user to worry about what a company pays its employees? It's really quite funny seeing this. I mean so many of the LE* dependant providers are either making no or very little profit as it is. If they t…
-
(Quote) Thanks, I will try that myself first, even that sounds a bit complex for the person asking.
-
Does anyone have any ideas or a provider for WordPress that allows a site to be staged 1st before anyone sees it? I was asked the question but don't really know. I am guessing the cPanel/Plesk WordPress toolkit is really the way to go?

I miss the old website and the 42% discounts. (Image)
