New feature: support for Hetzner on FlyWP

You can now easily deploy your servers on Hetzner using your Hetzner API credentials. The integration of Hetzner was one of the most requested features from our users, and we are thrilled to announce that it is now available to the public.
New feature: FlyWP’s enhanced SSL manager and custom SSL feature
On May 17, 2024, we introduced two powerful new features designed to enhance your WordPress server management experience; the Enhanced SSL Manager and Custom SSL Certificate Support. Here are the details of these two features:
- Enhanced SSL management: Our new SSL Manager is designed to simplify SSL certificate management, with a clean and user-friendly interface for effortless installation, management, and renewal of SSL certificates for your WordPress sites.
- Custom SSL support: To support SSL management, we now support custom SSL certificates. It enables you to install SSL certificates from any provider, giving you the flexibility to use certificates that best meet your specific needs.
New enhancements: new PHP settings
As a part of the enhancement, we’ve updated our PHP settings to give you more control and flexibility over your server configurations. It will help you to easily adjust the following settings directly from the FlyWP dashboard:
- Max file uploads: Define the maximum number of files that can be uploaded at once.
- Max input variables: Set the maximum number of input variables that can be accepted.
- Max input time: Determine the maximum time in seconds that a script is allowed to parse input data.
- Max execution time: Specify the maximum time in seconds that a script is allowed to run before it is terminated.
These options guarantee that your PHP environment can be customized to suit your requirements, hence improving resource management and performance.
New enhancements: updated phpMyAdmin page
In our second enhancement, we adjusted the database management. To let you know precisely when phpMyAdmin is active or disabled, we’ve included a loading state. The clear and useful warnings you will receive if any mistakes occur during this procedure will make troubleshooting and solving problems easier. A problem that stopped phpMyAdmin from working if the user manually changed the SSH port has also been fixed.
New enhancements: error handling and notifications
In our last enhancement, we made some improvements to error handling across the FlyWP platform.
Here’s what’s new:
- Server deletion process: We’ve enhanced the server deletion process to handle provider exceptions more gracefully. If an error occurs, you’ll now see detailed error notices on the front end of the app, helping you understand and address the issue quickly.
- Human-friendly error messages: We’ve refined error messages across the platform to ensure they are more descriptive and user-friendly. No more vague “Unknown error occurred” messages; now, you’ll receive clear information about what went wrong and how to fix it.
New fixes: bug fixes and stability enhancements
Apart from the new features and enhancements, we made some fixes to make FlyWP more smart and elegant. To increase FlyWP’s general reliability and user-friendliness, for example, we have fixed a tonne of issues and made other improvements. We have simplified procedures to increase the efficiency of your business and made sure that our error messages are understandable and useful.
Updates from the marketing end
For better promotion, we are exploring various marketing strategies to introduce FlyWP as the best server management solution for WordPress, in addition to product updates.
