    I recall we had an idea of remote listing of the backups in the storage and showing a UI to restore apps from the backups. Essentially, we need a "import UI" over existing backups. So, maybe in the Backups UI, we have a way to view the remote backups (shouldn't use our backup table but do remote listing), click on a backup and we should be able to restore. User is then insulated from app package version, app id and all those complications. @cbeams I agree it's great for testing. FWIW, One can already do cloudron install --appstore-id foo@1.3.2 to install any package. Also, Cloudron only supports rolling updates, which means that version numbers are mostly just an implementation detail for us and ideally the user should now know about it.

    Seems like more of a build toolchain thing, which would sort of put it up to those of us packaging apps and/or perhaps the build service to pick up as a feature. Intriguing, but strikes me as high-effort for middling (at best) reward at first blush.

    I think this feature makes sense. Just like we can restrict app passwords to specific apps, we want to extend the functionality to restrict to specific mailboxes.

    @robi Wow Robi, this is a great feature request!!! Just yesterday one of my Cloudron instances got a lot of traffic to email for a bruteforce attack. @girish I think this feature have to put on the top of the list to improve safety but also to reduce workload of instances and network traffic... [image: 1610527791540-schermata-2021-01-13-alle-09.49.21-resized.png] This is a statping how network performances was impacted before and later bruteforce. Also, need a robust alert system - email or other - to let us know that something is happens.

    I have to try myself, since such a symlink would reach out of the document root and thus could be a security issue (although since there are no secrets and the code is read-only probably not)

    @girish having a email manager for a user would be allready great idea. So a user could control his own email adresses. I totally on the other hand support the idea of a dimain admin, where users could control their apos and settinfs of the domain.

    Hetzner Cloud snapshoot can be an additional measure in case of total backup failover, but as @fbartels said, snapshoot could have inconsistent data and generate corrupted instance when recovery-restart. Snapshotting an instance can be an extreme way to recovery data. Of course, cannot be the first and the right way to make a restore. If you use that feature to make it cheaper I think is not a good way to approach problem. As @jdaviescoates said, you can purchase a Box from Hetzner and configure an extra backup, mounting CIFS directory. But also this procedure can have some risks in case of a total failover of Hetzner datacenter or connection. Best practice is to use a different provider or datacenter. (Now I'm testing Wasabi and seems to be fast, stable and reliable, but I'm scared about privacy policy management: maybe for some configuration mistake data directory can be exposed). Question is: @mikulabc why you want to use Snapshotting feature? To be cheap?

    @yusf Ah I see. I'll give that a try. I was considering setting up another cloudron as a backup as I've seen people on here doing that.

    @tamayers This would be nice to have, for sure. For the most part though, the domain registrar will handle that part of forwarding a full domain to another if you use their own DNS servers, etc. I have done that for a couple of my own domains that I had registered a long time ago for 10 years, but no longer use them so wanted to just forward them to my current ones instead. It would certainly be convenient for Cloudron admins if Cloudron did this too though. One example I can think of... I have two vanity URLs purchased by two different clients of mine where they want me hosting their email but for the website they want it going to their realtor agency website (for example) which is outside of my control, and would be convenient to set it all in the same space instead of a mix of domain registrar and Cloudron.

    @girish Oh, absolutely with a custom app, I mentioned in the original post that I'm going to build my own Wordpress Stack to simply and only add this. But I saw benefit to other user's being able to script something post-update as that's literally the only thing my stack will do differently than the default Wordpress app (I'll have to integrate your updates into my stack manually each time so I still wish there was a way to run an external custom sh script post-installation). As you can see my custom script simply uses the CLI to upgrade all databases with any new required formatting if and only if any updated Wordpress core or updated plugin require it. When you update from the Cloudron interface, it simply updates all the files and Wordpress has this really annoying tendency to not upgrade the databases post-upgrade invisibly. The script above is the only way to make sure file versions and database versions stay in sync 100% of the time every update. This becomes nearly unavoidable if you want to support multisite in the future since the problem becomes more convoluted in that installation type so my script detects multisite installations and runs database upgrades accordingly with WP CLI commands or single site only commands if it's a single site. I actually think the script below should be an optional "automatic upgrade plugin and themes checkbox when updating Wordpress core" option for Wordpress installations as well, here's the WP CLI code for it: # Plugin updates wp plugin update --all wp plugin update --all --skip-plugins --skip-themes # Theme updates wp theme update --all wp theme update --all --skip-plugins --skip-themes
