Yes. Under N99panel,  the WordPress discovery tool runs once every 24 hrs in order to locate the WordPress websites or setups, so that the same can then be latter managed from within N99panel.

But from within N99panel you have two options to expedite this process

• Manually initiate discovery tool by clicking on ‘Discover WordPress Setups’
• Add a current setup using the option ‘Add a Current WordPress Setup’

Yes. We do provide WordPress staging environment feature.

Using this feature you can easily push your current WordPress website to a staging environment, and then you can push back the same staging environment back to the original website.

In-fact you can have multiple staging environments for the same WordPress website or a setup.

Most likely cause of this issue is that the PHP’s memory_limit is set lower than what is required to make Elementor plugin run efficiently.

In order to fix it, the memory_limit value for PHP would need to be increased it to typically 512M. To do the same, please checkout our this FAQ : How to override or specify PHP INI directives

Then while setting the directive(s), add the following line

memory_limit=512M

When you submit the directives, the FPM for the corresponding VHost/Website would be restarted and the valid new values would take effect.

Yes. Auto-updates can easily be enabled w.r.t. WordPress websites or setups.

Simply click ‘Manage Auto Updates’ and then you can choose whether you wish to enable auto-updates for core, plugins or themes. When auto-updates are enabled, our system at regular intervals (every 6 hrs) runs updates, where it has been enabled.

Though there are multiple ways to change the WordPress admin user passwords, but N99panel make its super-easy to do so.

Under N99panel, the ‘WP Admins’ list the current admins for a website or a setup. Simple click on ‘Change Password’ to auto-generate a new password using which you can log into the WordPress admin section. As a matter of best practice, immediately change the password after logging in.

There are situation where you need to give WordPress admin access to a developer or a consultant. It is not desirable from security point of view and also it leads to inconvenience as you may change you WordPress admin password before sharing the details and re-changing it back after the requisite task is done.

Now in N99panel you do not need to go through the above ordeal. Under WordPress setups, clicking on ‘WP Admins’, you easily create temporary admin accounts which are time limited i.e. those accounts would be removed or revoked after their validity is surpassed. Our system checks for such accounts every 15 minutes, and when it discovers an account whose validity has surpassed, it automatically revokes that account.

There may be situations where you are migrating a website from one domain to another domain, or you just need to search and replace a particular text string throughout your WordPress website.

In N99panel against a WordPress website or a setup, you can click on ‘Search-Replace’ link, and in the next screen simply enter your search and replace strings. Upon submitting it, throughout the relevant WordPress tables, the necessary action would be done.

Once your WordPress setup starts showing under N99panel, you have two options to update your plugins or themes

• Bulk Update – You can easily update the WordPress core, all the WordPress plugins and themes, in a single action by using the update functionality. Here you have the option to select whether you wish to update the core, or the plugins or the themes.
• Selective Update – When you list WordPress plugins or themes, if the update is available for a particular plugin or a theme, the update link would be visible. Just click it to update that particular plugin or theme.

The good thing is that all this can be done right from within N99panel.

Migrating a WordPress or a WooCommerce website is super easy with N99panel. Broadly speaking, it involves following steps

1. In your cPanel, go to the File Manager and make an archive/zip file of public_html folder. Download this archive to your local system.
2. Again from within cPanel, go to phpMyAdmin and export the DB. This should be a SQL file, preferably compressed as a zip file.
3. Now in N99panel, create a user and a Website/VHost under it
4. Upload both the archive file and the sql (can be zipped) file into the user directory using a SFTP client like FileZilla
5. From within the Website/VHost details/mgmt menu, choose ‘ Restore a WordPress Archive (with SQL file) to the VHost’ .
6. Now you would be prompted to enter the uploaded archive file name and the SQL file name. Submit the details and rest everything will be automated.

Now if everything works smoothly, you should have a working WordPress website . Our system handles all the behind the scene tasks.

When your WordPress website runs on a N99panel VPS, in order to send email from WordPress forms etc., we advise you to use the WP Mail SMTP Plugin. Also you would need to have a valid email ID for which you have the SMTP access.

In order to configure WP Mail SMTP, please refer to the following documentation : https://wpmailsmtp.com/docs/how-to-set-up-the-other-smtp-mailer-in-wp-mail-smtp/ . Also once you have configured WP SMTP, you can send a test email to verify whether it is working or not. To test the same, the WordPress menu hierarchy is WordPress Dashboard >> WP Mail SMTP >> Tools >> Email Test.

Surely yes.

Under N99panel, using the One Click WordPress installer, you can easily setup a WordPress website on the main domain or in a sub-folder. The process is simple, requires minimal details and is just a one-click process.

On a WordPress setup when it comes to caching for improving the page load times, we strongly advise you to use Varnish cache (it comes with N99panel) instead of using a caching plugin.

If you use a caching plugin for any reason whatsoever, please be aware of its URL pre-fetch or preemptive fetching feature. This feature lets the caching plugin store page content into the cache using background processes. Issue arises if the concurrency of the pre-fetching exceeds the max allocated PHP processes value. This can lead to exhaustion of VPS’s RAM leading to sluggishness and/or other unexpected behaviour.

Therefore our advice is that either,
1. If you are using Varnish, do not use other caching plugins in WordPress.
2. Or if you still wish to use a caching plugins, disable the preempt feature or lower its concurrency and frequency.

In case you get white-screen or some errors or a non-functional WordPress website after migrating from your old host, kindly ensure/do the following.

• You should already have setup a MySQL User/DB pair with your WordPress MySQL data successfully uploaded into the new DB. And the same credentials reflect in your wp-config.php . These steps w.r.t. MySQL are automatically handled when you restore a WordPress archive (with MySQL DB) from within N99panel
• Set WP_DEBUG to true in your wp-config.php file . Enabling it would show errors on the screen, if any. For details refer to https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/debugging-in-wordpress/
• Check error_log file to see if any errors are present in there
• Importantly check if there are any path references w.r.t. previous hosting, in your wp-config.php file.  If there are any references to the old paths, you would need to comment out those lines.
• In some cases you may need to use the WordPress’s default .htaccess file as your current .htaccess may have entries leading to a non-functional setup. We advise you to take backup of your current .htaccess files and place a new .htaccess file .  For WordPress’s default .htaccess file, please refer to https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/htaccess/
