Clone from one server to another multiple times (change user on clone)
When you clone an app from one server to another, it keeps the same Unix/Linux user and MySQL database name, user and password. Thus, if you clone an app from one server to another, you can't repeat the process later, unless you delete the 1st clone.
We like to start with a base WP template app and another for WooCommerce. Then each time we start a new project we clone one of those templates to the server it's going to run on. Unfortunately after we do it from the server where the template resides to a new server, one time,…

The logic behind keeping same creds is that many people use this feature to create test/dev environments, so it is convenient for them to have it like this.
In any case, for the flow you mention, you could clone a template from server A to server B. Then on server B, keep the first copy of the app as a template and clone it (on the same server) as many times as needed. Cloning on the same server changes all credentials, so this should work for you?.

Drupal secure on install
Please could you find a way to keep up-to-date with Drupal core security updates (eg. current 7.38 has a critical security flaw). It's a PITA to get a security email immediately on install and have to go in and update. Isn't there a way to pull the latest secure core as part of your install process?
Thanks, Neil

Offer Cloud Hosting Provider Wable.com
Wable is similar to Digital Ocean but superior in terms of raw power value per dollar. Wable is similar to Vultr but again, superior in terms of raw power per dollar. Many people online Vultr as an alternative to Digital Ocean, if that is you, check out Wable.

How to setup the sender mail for each website, please?
Hi,
I am using Gmail SMTP for current server, which related email is sinoceo@hotmail.com.
Now I am testing Magento website, which when customer place order or signup, the Magento will send related email to the customer but the sender always is honestyplus@gmail, which is our Gmail account for Gmail SMTP. But we need the sender if what we setup, such as info@thumbpackaging.com for thumbpackaging.com website. So how we should setup, please? I believe it's related with the server because I am also using other server from Knownhost.com, which we launched many websites and the sender both are different according…

Option to run apache as www-data
It would be good if there was an option not to run Apache as the same user as SSH / file owner. That way it would be possible to make files & folders read-only as far as the server / PHP is concerned.

Option to DELETE account quickly
This is a follow-up to this: http://feedback.cloudways.com/forums/203824-service-improvement/suggestions/9504162-option-to-close-account-quickly
As I said, what I am suggesting here is a quick way to properly CLOSE/DELETE an account.
Cloudways currently does not offer such an option.

Add an option to configure Output Buffering (output_buffering) for php under Server settings and Packages
It would be nice to be able to configure Output Buffering (outputbuffering) for php and apply it server wide. Joomla Recommends turning Off outputbuffering for full compatibility. It is a better option to have this capability than to create a custom php.ini file and then uploading it to each and every application that needs it.

Add a text option for 2 factor authentication
The 2 factor authentication is a great feature! You might even get more users on board if there could be an option to receive a text instead of a message through Google Authenticator (ease of use).

Trial Account expires after deleting a server
I was setting up a trial account to evaluate Cloudways. I created a server on DigitalOcean, but noticed only after creation that the default location was set to London.
Being in the US, I wanted to recreate it in the SF or NY zone. So I clicked to delete the server.
Immediately after deleting, I was presented with a message stating that my 14-day trial account was now expired... just minutes in.
I'm fine with a one server limit, but I would expect that to be limited to one simultaneous instance.
In lieu of that, it would have been nice…

Add support for PHPEd debugger
Hi,
Could you possibly add support for PHPEd? It's one of the most popular PHP development IDEs. It has its own debugger extension as described here: http://www.nusphere.com/kb/technicalfaq/howtoinstalldbg_module.htm
An overview of their debugger is here:
http://www.nusphere.com/products/php_debugger.htm?Basically, it involves uploading the debugger extension to the server and making some modifications to the PHP.ini file.

Offer a LAPP stack as an alternative to a LAMP stack.
I'd like either bare "metal" spin that allows installing whatever on it or a LAPP stack... We have applications that like that better.

Cloudways should partner with ewww.io to bring their tool as a MediaWiki extension
ewww.io has a magnificent Wordpress plugin that can batch optimize images in directories, even outside the wp-uploads directory. To have this capability in MediaWiki installs would be a huge improvement in the lives of administrators of MediaWiki websites that deal a lot with images. To get bulk optimization of gifs, jpegs, pngs, it would be great. I have pitched the idea to ewww.io before, but I think they don't have many resources. If CloudWays could support them in a way, it would also benefit all the CloudWays customers with huge MediaWiki installations
