If you are feeling brave I found https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/121687/wordpress-hide-the-username-password-fields-in-login-page But I think the feature you want is essentially https://github.com/oidc-wp/openid-connect-generic/issues/477 . There's a PR at https://github.com/oidc-wp/openid-connect-generic/pull/478 which hasn't been merged.

Thank you all for the suggestions! Good ideas! Overnight after my message to the forum it turns out the bot traffic finally went back to normal levels overnight and the app has been stable ever since. But this definitely reminded me that getting a good WAF (or improving the robots.txt at a minimum) can be important and needs to be evaluated. Hopefully Cloudron can integrate a simplistic WAF into the system directly in the future (maybe even using that BunkerWeb if possible).

Thanks for the heads up. It seems the fork is by the same author. Wonder what gives.

@Miroo said in Wordpress stuck at starting: But how can I disable the sso plugins without running to these issues again? The sso mode is set/unset at installation time. This cannot be changed later. What you can do is something like this: Take back up of app . Download the backup configuration Install an empty WP instance. When installing, choose "Leave user management to the app" Then, App -> Backups -> Import . Use config from step 1. If things work out, you can delete the original app and move this new instance into www .

Hello @jamie.mckenzie @jamie.mckenzie said in Wordpress - Unable to restore from backup: Does the automated backup not include files outside of the data folder? The Cloudron backup only includes the database and files in /app/data/ @jamie.mckenzie said in Wordpress - Unable to restore from backup: It doesn't get to restore the key files like wp-config.php - and these files are missing at the backup location (s3) This is indeed strange. For the WordPress Developer app the file wp-config.php is located in /app/data/public/wp-config.php, so it should be included in the backup. @jamie.mckenzie said in Wordpress - Unable to restore from backup: There is no memory issues as the server has plenty of available memory for restore. That the server itself has enough memory is not the point. The point made was that you might need to increase the apps memory limit. @jamie.mckenzie said in Wordpress - Unable to restore from backup: I have tried clearing down the cached files in the backup storage down to the bare minimum yet it still fails. I would strongly advise against tinkering with anything inside the backup. In Cloudron 9 backup integrity checks are added which will fail if you delete files by hand. @jamie.mckenzie said in Wordpress - Unable to restore from backup: Also is there a way to alter the back configuration so more than 10 files are downloaded concurrently Indeed, should we make this configurable @staff? @jamie.mckenzie Could you please share more details about your S3 provider?

Hello @Miroo and welcome to the Cloudron forum @Miroo said in Migrating WordPress to cloudron from managed vps: Is WordPress app on cloudron only with Apache? The WordPress app is running Apache 2 inside with MPM. But above all apps is running NGINX handling traffic. @Miroo said in Migrating WordPress to cloudron from managed vps: Is there any way to use nginx web server? No, and with Cloudron you don't need to worry about that. The WordPress Apps Apache 2 can also be tweaked to your liking. On that note. Cloudron offers the WordPress App as a Managed and Developer version. Docs here: https://docs.cloudron.io/packages/wordpress-managed/ https://docs.cloudron.io/packages/wordpress-developer/ @Miroo said in Migrating WordPress to cloudron from managed vps: Can I choose php version for my WordPress installation? I have an app connected to the Vps that requires a specific php version. The WordPress app is using PHP version 8.3.6 and can't be changed. The LAMP app offers PHP Version selection so if this is a must-have, you might need to install WordPress inside the LAMP app yourself. But, if your WordPress requires a very specific PHP version, why is that? Outdated custom code? Outdated plugins? I recommend getting rid of this limitation since it also blocking PHP security updates for you. @Miroo said in Migrating WordPress to cloudron from managed vps: I saw the WordPress installation has a redis configuration, do i need to install a new plugin and connect it to that config or is it pre-configured in the WordPress itself? Cloudron takes care of this, you don't need to configure that. @Miroo said in Migrating WordPress to cloudron from managed vps: Since I'm migrating wp, I'm gonna use updraftplus and it's gonna replace everything with my previous wp instance. Would this be safe or will it break some pre-configured stuff on cloudron? I can't write a definite answer to that. It seems other people might have had issues, but you can only know by trying. For other posts regarding updraftplus see https://forum.cloudron.io/search?term=updraftplus&in=titlesposts @Miroo said in Migrating WordPress to Cloudron from managed vps: What are some advantages/disadvantages of installing wp app directly VS using LAMP? One advantage of the LAMP app I already mentioned, the selection of the PHP version. But the disadvantage is that you will need to take care of every WordPress update yourself. Also, you will miss the app isolation and sandboxing of WordPress, meaning you have more responsibility to make sure your WordPress stays secure. I would recommend trying the migration first with the managed WordPress app and see if issues arise. While doing that, you can create a Post in the @wordpress-managed category and while doing that writing a blog style post. This way, if issues arise, people here can follow your steps and help very fast. If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate and keep asking. We are always happy to help.

@girish Yes, rsync. Provider is Hetzner Storage Box

@jdaviescoates Might just be nothing to update. I expect they are attentive to it, as so many of their other plugin clients will use. I'm sure you know, but for anyone skipping to the end of this thread. FluentSMPT will stop working every time the Cloudron App is restarted and SMTP Mailer is reinstalled and reactivated. That's the issue this post prmarily aims to address.

Hello @humptydumpty Very good that you were able to solve the issue yourself with --troubleshoot.

@harveywillj yes, already disabled this by default in future releases - https://git.cloudron.io/platform/box/-/commit/c44926c2cd1420ba6a178d5378f391cf85a11315

@d19dotca said in Wordpress not getting updated when app updated?: That happens for me too but I believe that’s intentional as the developer edition is meant to provide more control to the admins. just wanted to confirm this is indeed the case. when the WP developer package is updated, it only affects the version of new/fresh installations and does not affect the existing WP installation . I have put in a note to make future changelogs clearer about this.

@joseph Thanks for this - I though initially that this was a "Cloudron" plugin.

@girish said in PHP Version for WordPress Developer: It's just a lot of work for what we think is a corner case. I think for such cases where a specific PHP version is desired, it's best if people use LAMP app, choose whichever PHP and install WP themselves . Do we have examples of popular plugins requiring specific PHP versions in WordPress? Fair enough. I don't have specific examples to give, nor the current need myself, just thought it'd be nice to have and easy enough feature to add and wasn't really thinking about the consequences

I do this as well. I just have a www.template.(mydomain) install running. I use this as my blueprint site, and I leave it running for updates and to make sure it’s backed up routinely. I then clone from the backup to the new domain at www.staging.(theirdomain) when I’m starting a new site for a client, for example.

@svtx yes, other plugins won't get nuked. Just this specific one is also used by the package so it's trying to do some auto-configuration magic.

At my place after many years after replacing the router from EdgeMax to Cloud Gateways 2 weeks ago, I also had a similar problem and only added the rule I gave in another topic. https://forum.cloudron.io/post/98217 It has been working properly ever since. I don't open other ports besides http,https or add domain in DNS tab. Why so? In the Ubiquiti system, the loopback works between the WAN and LAN, so the “LAN IN” rule activates the loopback correctly. Because the loopback “works” in the address network like Gateway, so, then when I added blocking access to Gateway from different VLANs(probably at this point, because I configured in stages throughout the week), then I could not turn on the site on the computer through the local network, and outside with no problem. I started snooping what was the cause, reviewed the rules in the firewall and the forum. I read somewhere that you had to add a rule in LAN IN. After adding it started working as it should, even the tests in Wordpress shows correctly.
