How-tos
One task each, step by step: certificates, service plans, customers, remote SQL Server access, remote backups, the panel port, PHP versions and mail authentication.
Issue a Let's Encrypt certificate for a websiteGet a free Let's Encrypt certificate for a website and its www name, redirect HTTP to HTTPS and let StackRegent renew it automatically.
Create a service planBuild a hosting plan tab by tab, from disk space and mailboxes to CPU limits and free certificates, and learn how changes reach the subscriptions that use it.
Add a customer and a subscriptionCreate a customer account with its first subscription in one form, or add a subscription to an existing customer, and check what the customer sees.
Allow remote SQL Server accessOpen SQL Server Express on port 1433 to customers' own tools, limit who may connect, and keep each customer's databases hidden from the others.
Set up remote backups to FTP, SFTP or S3Connect remote storage, schedule nightly server backups with a password and a retention count, and test a restore before you need one.
Change the panel portMove the panel from HTTPS port 9443 and HTTP port 9080 to other ports with one command, and update the firewalls and the panel URL to match.
Add a PHP versionInstall another PHP branch next to the existing ones, adjust its php.ini, offer it to websites and move sites over, all from the panel.
Set up DKIM, SPF and DMARC for a domainSign outgoing mail with DKIM, publish SPF and DMARC records, and move DMARC from monitoring to enforcement once mail passes.
