Disable Vanish by default.
It never works out of the box and always causes errors on anything but the simplest sites.
I always have to disable it on most sites whilst uploading, file scanning etc.

New Feature: per app smtp host, port, username and password configuration
Currently we can configure SMTP at "Servers -> Server Management -> SMTP".
This request is to add this same functionality at "Applications -> Application Management -> SMTP".
This can be a preferred solution then to add extra plugin code to each app.

Add the ability to label Backups and flag them to be permanent
Hi, I see there's suggestion for able to label backups and it's not been implemented yet so I'd like to add another vote for being able to do this.
Also, it would be great to be able to go intot he automated backup history, and flag any one of them as "Permanent" so they don't get deleted.

support forcing lowercase URLs
It's poor SEO to be able to access the same pages of a website on different URLs - this includes capital letter URLs for any web service that utilises re-writes (e.g. a CMS such as Wordpress).
This can be resolved by utilising htaccess with a RewriteMap or Nginx, see links below. But none of these options are included in the standard server config and Cloudways interface doesn't allow them to be added.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19048192/force-lower-case-of-urls-override-previous-rules
Be really useful if this was possible. Support tried to implement the htaccess option for me, but it took down Nginx for some unknown reason -…

PHP-FPM Pool Process Manager (pm) Settings
Being able to set these in the Settings & Packages section would be great.
pm.maxchildren = # The hard-limit total number of processes allowed
pm.startservers = # When php-fpm starts, have this many processes waiting for requests
pm.minspareservers = # Number spare processes php-fpm will create
pm.maxspareservers = # Max number of spare (waiting for connections) processes allowed to be created
pm.processidletimeout = #5 votes -
Remote access for xDebug
Currently the configuration of the Cloudways instances doesn't allow the remote use of xDebug. Allowing this, will allow developers to use the Cloudways applications for development purpose and allow them to debug the code as if they were on a local environment.

add option to specify swap file size
Normally the swap file size is configured for optimal performance of the server. However there are times that you need a little more memory even at the cost of lower performance (especially if that need is temporary and circumstancial). In these cases it would be useful to be able to change the swap file size (within reasonable limits).
One such case occurred to me when I tried to use composer on a magento 2 app, on a 1GB server. 1GB RAM + 256MB swap is simply not enough for composer to run successfully. The only option is to move to…

PTR records / Reverse DNS
DNS is important, reverse DNS is also important within production web farms. Currently it is not possible to set the PTR record for IPs on the Digital Ocean (+other?) platforms. PTR record lookups return something along the lines of: 12345-67890.cloudwaysapps.com.
Please add the ability for clients to modify this zone.
