Feature Ideas

Allow users to connect their plugin & theme license for 1-click activation on sites they are creating on InstaWP or migrating to a hosting provider.

Provide an option to take automated daily or weekly backups for InstaWP sites, this will help users recover sites if something goes wrong. Also an option to limit the automated backups to last X times.

We are working on a new version of WaaS portal which will allow end-users to manage their websites, view a list of websites they have purchased, buy more etc.

Client reporting functionality for site management feature. Generate whitelabel client reports.

Problem: I have 5 sites with a random name that were created a week ago. Now I don't remember why each one was created. Solutoin: A description field below the URL. I could explain the purpose of a site like "Testing Woo shipping options" or "Testing theme update".

Exporting static .zip for sites hosted on InstaWP.

Sometimes when we move a client from InstaWP to our production service we aren't quite ready to nuke everything on InstaWP. I'd like to be able to suspend the site (or redirect it from the dashboard) without deleting it while we wait for it to expire.

Simple brochure sites are primarily static, and don't need dynamic functions. Most of them require only a contact form, which can be taken care of by a third-party service. For these types of sites, an option to completely lock both the database and the file system would minimize maintenance and prevent security issues altogether, bringing complete peace of mind for clients and developers. Rocket.net implemented this feature recently, and it works well.

It would be great if the website owner could disable all installed plugins. If any unexpected errors occur, this setting will assist users in recovering the website.

Please explore a partnership with Gridpane. They also have funding from Automattic and are much more established than a platform like ServerAvatar. https://gridpane.com/

You will be able to switch on Activity logs for your connected websites (i.e our https://wordpress.org/plugins/instawp-connect/ plugin is installed). This will allow websites to send critical logs like plugin deactivated, admin user created to your email or slack (or other integrations).

At the moment, the first admin user account seems to be used for Magic login after for staging sites. There should ideally be a dropdown to select which admin user account is to be used.

Allow the selection of the datacentre location for staging sites created from within the WordPress plugin to speed up staging creation.

Provide option in wordpress plugin to let people make custom name instead of random name for their staging so it's more visual in instawp dashboard.

Facility to add Terminal, Server logs and (not sure how) Local folder sync.
