Site

Summary

The Site tab lets you create new sites and view a list of existing sites. Sites can be assigned to a Property for organization.

To get started, click on the + Site button:

The sections below cover the full Site lifecycle — creating a new site, editing its deployment settings, day-to-day operations (restart, reinstall, suspend), and migrating an existing site in from another host.

  • Create — Provision a new Site by choosing its name, type, tier, datacenter, and storage.
  • Edit — Update an existing Site to configure CDN, REDIS, backups, FileManager, phpMyAdmin, Domain, CustomDNS, and Advanced settings.
  • Restart — Restart a Site (~60s downtime) without touching its files or database.
  • Reinstall — Reinstall the base files for a Site as a recovery option; database and settings are preserved.
  • Import — Migrate an existing site from another host into HonestHosting using the HonestHosting Site Migrator plugin.
  • Suspend — Suspend a Site with a reason; visitors are redirected to a suspension landing page.
