  @dustinc thanks man, and thanks for sending all those reports my way. 100+ pages, and a lot of you actually installed the thing and wrote up what you found. That's gold for us. I owe a few of you proper answers, so here goes.

  @GenerallyClueless

  • Client login sending you back to the client side instead of the admin dashboard: yep, that's a bug. For now, opening /admin/dashboard after you sign in gets you there.
  • File Manager throwing 403 when you open a file in the editor: we've confirmed a bug with that symptom.
  • Email Accounts vs Email Boxes: good question. Email Accounts is the one that limits how many mailboxes a client can create. "Email Boxes" isn't used for that limit right now, which is why the form is so confusing.
  • Mailing lists: 0 means unlimited there, and the form doesn't tell you. To turn mailing lists off for a package, give it a Feature List with Mailing Lists unticked (careful when editing an existing one, other packages using it change too).
  • PHP LiteSpeed still showing up after you removed OpenLiteSpeed: noted, we're looking at that one.

  @sh97

  • WordPress: if you were installing on a fresh domain, most likely it's the same thing @borales ran into. A new domain comes with a placeholder index.php, and with "Clean existing files" off the installer treats it as a conflict and stops, and the wizard lands back on step 1 instead of making it obvious why. Ticking "Clean existing files" gets past that (it wipes what's in the folder, so look first if the domain already has content). The path field only takes letters, digits, "-", "_" and "/", so a dot or a space in the path would give you "format is invalid".
  • File Manager: we've confirmed a bug with that "Sign in to the panel" message, though the message alone doesn't tell us the cause on your server.
  • 0 domains on the admin side: we've only been able to reproduce that while the panel is still provisioning in the background right after setup. If it still doesn't match on your server, ping me.
  • "admin" being reserved: if you went with "Host my own websites" in the wizard, that username is for your first hosting account, and the panel login stays "admin". Fair point, the wizard should make that clearer.

  @rumpum

  • Root password: the AdminBolt installer itself doesn't change it. @ikunlala mentioned that the ctrl page shows both the root and panel credentials when the one-click install finishes, so that's the first place to look.
  • abcd@1234 as "very strong": yeah, the strength meter is way too generous, that's a bug.
  • RAM use and the Hindi translation: both noted, and thanks for giving the Hindi interface a proper go.

  @chengrose

  • Sidebar search: the field already has autocomplete="off", but your browser fills it anyway and the menu filters itself down. Good find. For now, clearing the search box brings the menu back.
  • Session timeout: the panel's default is 2 hours of inactivity, so that alone doesn't explain what you're seeing. If it happens again, tell me roughly how long you were away and whether you had the admin and client panels open at the same time.
  • Debian/Ubuntu: thanks, added your vote.

  @ikunlala

  • "Update status unknown" and the mail IPv6 message: both checks run hourly, so right after setup they most likely just haven't run yet. Agreed, "pending" would be a lot less alarming there.
  • The https://IP:8443 warning: noted. Meanwhile, the myboltip.com hostname you mentioned is the way to go, since that one had a valid certificate.
  • The stale "at least 10 characters" error: haven't reproduced that one yet, thanks for the exact steps.

  @weishiair @Beyfish @samuraiMa thanks for the write-ups and congrats on the VPS! If anything breaks or confuses you, tag me here.

  All of this, bugs and suggestions alike, is on our list. Keep it coming!
