WordPress¶
The WordPress toolkit allows you to manage WordPress installations directly in the panel — from 1-click installation and automatic updates to plugin and theme management, security scans and database optimization.
Overview¶
The WordPress table shows all your WordPress installations:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Domain | Website where WordPress is installed |
| Version | Installed WordPress version |
| Admin URL | Link to the WordPress admin dashboard |
| Auto-Update | Status of automatic updates |
| Status | Active, Maintenance Mode or Debug Mode |
Install WordPress¶
- Click Install WordPress
- Fill in the form:
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Website | Yes | Website where WordPress should be installed |
| Admin User | Yes | Username for the WordPress admin |
| Admin Password | Yes | Password for the WordPress admin |
| Admin Email | Yes | Email address for the WordPress admin |
| Site Title | Yes | Title of the WordPress website |
- Click Install
The system automatically performs:
- Download of the latest WordPress version
- Creation of a MariaDB database (automatic naming)
- Configuration of
wp-config.php - WordPress installation with the provided credentials
- Activation of HTTPS (if SSL is active)
Quota
Each WordPress installation counts as a separate website against the license limit as well as your package quota for WordPress and databases.
Auto-Login (SSO)¶
You can log in directly from the panel to the WordPress admin without entering a username and password:
- Click Auto-Login next to the WordPress installation
- A new tab opens with the WordPress dashboard
How It Works
The panel creates a one-time, time-limited login token. This is processed by a WordPress plugin (mu-plugin) that authenticates you automatically.
