Add scheduling to vertical scaling
Since vertical scaling requires that the server go down for up to 10 minutes, I would like the ability to schedule that for, say, 3am local time.

Exclude Varnish by User-agent
When I keep Varnish activated, my user-agent sniffing rule doesn't work always.
Usage example
Return 404 for X user-agent
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPUSERAGENT} .(X).$ [NC]
RewriteRule . - [R=404,L,NC]This is a big problem for a common use.

ESI Includes are not working
ESI Includes are not working on my server. I contacted tech support and they said to suggest it here.
I have done a test here - www.preciousfaithdesigns.com/test2.html
It is not my website, because I have bypassed Magento 2 in the test.
Magento 2 utilises ESI includes and in production mode not having ESI includes breaks the site.
Could you please find out why ESI Includes are not turned on for my sever? My test shows ESI includes are not working.
Tearing my hair out.
Thanks

Fix Issues With Primary Domain Changes
You might consider this a bug, but after having been bit by it multiple times, I figured it would be best to post it here.
When you have multiple apps on a server and you re-arrange the primary domains on them, changing which app a specific app uses, the server will not properly follow your new primary domain settings and will instead load your default app. Here is how you reproduce the issue:
- Have an app on the server with a domain like dev.mysite.com
- Have a second app (your production app) on the server with a domain like mysite.com.
- You…

Ability to use installed application folder as a GIT repository and pull directly.
I was so excited to have Laravel installation in 2 clicks and when I see is up. Then I'd like to pull from server to my local host by GIT and start to development.... No-way. Big frustration :-( if I have an app on GitHub; I can pull it from github to cloudways but I can't use the application folder as a repository.. so what the application installations for? I hope this feature request make sense.
Thanks3 votesAdminCloudways (Admin, Cloudways) responded
Trevor, can you further develop this?. With master credentials, you should be able to git pull / push / clone … at will from the server.
If you can provide specific issue and steps to reproduce it will be very helpful to assess what we can do.

Make it possible to set server time from the server settings menu
It would be nice to be able to modify the server time from the server settings menu. Maybe under the advanced section.

Oscar you mean server time or server time zone?. Time is controlled via NTP servers, so don’t see the need for it.

Xdebug support for PHP 7.3 and 7.4
For debugging Magento 2 stores the Xdebug is invaluable.
Magento 2.4 will only support PHP 7.3 and 7.4.
We need a solution for running Xdebug on newer PHP versions.

Allow DDNS Hostname for IP in Security
I noticed that I can't use my DDNS as my IP in the Security Tab of Cloudways.
Although using a hostname in the IP section could prove a slightly increased security risk, the benefit of not having to update my dynamic IP on the system, far outweighs it.
The DDNS allows my Dynamic IP to be mapped to a URL for easy-use :)2 votes -
Alert should generate if CPU or RAM Idle Usage is less than 40%
Currently the Bot gives alert if the CPU or RAM idle usage is continuously below 20%. My point is that whenever it goes below 20% an alert should be generated each time.

There must be more than one data base creation option for one application
There must be more than one data base creation option for one application. some times we have to create more than one database for few operations in Magento 2 but working on cloud ways we have to go far long way for it by installing another app which definitely overload server and result increase of cost if resource is increased or if resource is not increased then performance decline is the consequence.
for example a Magento developer or user want to use a theme quick start pack he has to create a new data base and what if he already…

Make server settings and packages transferrable or export/importable
Context: You don't provide root access or downscaling for Digital Ocean, Lincode, or Vulture servers (3/5 of your providers). Also, you only provide 1-1 or upscaled server cloning for these providers.
Use case: I scaled up my Digital Ocean development server to handle a taxing dev. After I cloned the completed app to my production server, I had to:
- Create a new, smaller DO server
- Readjust all of my server settings, packages, and customizations
- Clone each dev app individually.
Alternative: Since you provide automated workarounds for your lack of root access, provide a similar, automated workaround for "downscaling" servers.
