Overview tab

Open a website from the Websites page to land on the Overview tab, the default tab of the website detail page.

Status information

• Status: Running / Stopped (for Node.js and Python. PHP and static sites are always “running” because they are served by the shared nginx/PHP-FPM).
• Disk usage: total size of the website’s home directory. For very large directories the panel shows “too large to measure quickly” so the page does not hang.
• SSL certificate: days remaining, or “No certificate”.
• Latest backup: time of the most recent successful backup.

Settings by website type

PHP

• PHP version: switch quickly between installed versions.
• Common settings: memory_limit, max_execution_time, upload_max_filesize and similar. The panel limits each website to the supported PHP settings.
• Other settings: less common php.ini options, hidden by default.

Node.js

• Node.js version
• Entry file: path relative to the document root, e.g. server.js or dist/index.js.
• Application port: Nginx forwards requests to this port. The app must listen on it (through the PORT environment variable).
• Maximum RAM: an application that exceeds this limit is stopped and restarted automatically.

Python

• Python version
• Entry file: a path, or -m module_name. The app runs in the website’s own virtualenv (~/venv).

Reverse proxy

• Upstream address: the HTTP/HTTPS address Nginx forwards requests to.

Document root

Defaults to htdocs. You can switch to a subdirectory, for example public for Laravel. The panel creates the directory if it does not exist.

Applying changes

Click Save settings. The panel rebuilds the configuration and validates it before loading. If validation fails (for example nginx -t reports an error), the panel keeps the running configuration and shows the detailed error, so the website is not interrupted.

Deleting a website

The Delete website section is at the bottom of the tab and requires typing the website name to confirm. By default it only removes the configuration and unregisters the site from the panel. Tick “Also delete the system account, home directory and all files” to remove everything.
