Sites

When you manage more than a handful of WordPress sites, keeping track of them across different servers becomes a real challenge. The Sites page solves that by pulling every site you’ve created on FlyWP into one searchable, filterable dashboard — so you can check health, trigger actions, and navigate to any site in seconds, without remembering which server it lives on.

Sites listing page

Whether you’re running three sites or three hundred, this is your starting point for day-to-day site management.

What You See on the Sites Page

Each site card displays the following details:

  • Domain — the site’s primary domain, shown with a lock icon when SSL (Secure Sockets Layer, the technology that enables the padlock and https:// in your browser) is active
  • Server name — which server hosts this site
  • PHP version — the PHP version the site is running (e.g., 8.2, 8.3)
  • WordPress version — the currently installed WordPress version
  • Status badge — indicates whether the site is active, creating, sleeping, or has an issue
  • Action icons — quick shortcuts for refresh, clone, backup, and deploy

Grid and List View

Use the Grid/List toggle in the top-right corner to switch layouts:

  • Grid view — displays sites as visual cards, great for scanning a handful of sites
  • List view — displays sites in a compact table, better when you manage many sites

Searching for a Site

The search bar at the top lets you filter sites by domain name. Start typing and results update instantly.

Filtering Sites

Use the Select Option dropdown to narrow the list by server, status, or other criteria. This is especially helpful when you manage dozens of sites and need to focus on a specific subset.

Creating a New Site

Click the Create New Site button to launch the site creation wizard. You will choose a server, pick a site type, configure your domain, and set up WordPress — all in a guided flow. See Creating a Site for full details.

Quick Actions

Each site card includes a row of action icons so you can perform common tasks without opening the site’s detail page:

IconAction
RefreshSync the latest site status from the server
CloneCreate a copy of the site on the same or a different server
BackupTrigger an on-demand backup immediately
DeployRun a Git deployment (if Git deployment is configured)

Site Detail Page

Clicking on any site card opens its detail page, where you can manage SSL, caching, security, backups, WordPress settings, file management, and more through a tabbed sidebar. Additional per-site settings include:

  • PHP Settings — adjust the PHP version, memory limit, upload size, and other PHP configuration values for the site
  • Environment — view and edit the site’s .env file directly from the dashboard
  • Cron Settings — configure WordPress cron jobs or disable the default WP-Cron in favour of a server-level cron
