Manage a Site

Web

Open ZynoHosting, select a site, and use the overview for status and the actions your role allows.

Site overview

The overview can show the site's address, aliases, TLS state, runtime, storage use, database status, deployment state, and recent hosting operations. A warning or pending state means a change is still applying or needs attention.

Common actions

ActionHow it works
Manage hostnamesAdd or review an authorized hostname, then complete the DNS instructions shown by the portal. Domain evidence and certificate status update as verification progresses.
Deploy filesUse the file tools or the CLI to plan and apply an authorized deployment. Confirm the selected site before applying a deployment.
Manage WordPressWordPress sites can show install status and approved actions such as an administrator sign-in link or password reset. Treat one-time sign-in links as sensitive.
Manage filesCreate, replace, download, or delete files only within the site's document root. If the portal reports a concurrent update, refresh and retry with the current file version.
Manage database accessReview the managed database and use the available credential, export, or maintenance actions. Existing database passwords remain hidden after they are set.
Manage SFTPReview connection instructions, add or remove an approved SSH key, or rotate a password when your role allows it. Password values remain hidden after they are set.
Clear cacheRequest a cache purge after a deploy or content update. A purge completes independently from a deployment.
Redirects and WAF rulesManage approved redirects and manual allow/block rules when your role allows them. ZynoHosting protects reserved platform paths, so a redirect cannot take over those paths.
Analytics and ZynoThreadsAttach the site to one compatible active analytics property, choose an optional collection-mode override or cross-site participation, enable the separately deployed analytics feature, and configure an eligible ZynoThreads web integration.

Storage, cache, and reconciliation

The site overview reports storage quota state, measured usage, available space, and whether the configured state has applied to the cluster. Storage limits are organization-controlled; contact a platform administrator when the site needs a quota change. A quota warning does not increase the limit or delete files automatically.

Pick a cache policy your role allows, then request a purge after content or deploy changes. Purge and deploy are separate—check each status before assuming visitors see the new site.

After you save, ZynoHosting applies the change in the background. The overview shows pending, applied, or failed status. If something fails, keep the error text when you contact support.

Redirects and WAF rules

Use redirects to send a matching request to an approved destination and use WAF rules to add a manual allow or block rule when your organization gives you those controls. Review the hostname, path, and destination carefully before saving. Reserved ZynoHosting paths remain protected and do not become redirect destinations.

Delete or disable a rule that is no longer required. If a redirect or WAF change has a pending or failed operation, correct the displayed configuration and wait for the reconciliation result before testing the live site.

Analytics and ZynoThreads

The site can connect to one compatible active analytics property. The property controls shared reporting and privacy settings, while the site can override collection mode and choose whether to participate in cross-site behavior. The separately managed analytics feature must also deploy successfully before the site collects data. Use the Analytics area to review the available overview, traffic, path, audience, or journey information for your authorized property. See Hosting Analytics for property, site, privacy, retention, and cross-site setup.

When your organization enables ZynoThreads web integration for a site, use the site's integration controls to select the qualified configuration. A site association and integration change can apply in the background; confirm its status before publishing related site changes.

Backups and deletion

If your role offers the action, request a complete backup archive before deleting a site. Deleting a site removes its site home, so download and verify any archive you need before confirming deletion. The site page reports the deletion operation until it completes.

Troubleshooting

ProblemWhat to check
A saved change is not liveCheck the operation status on the site overview. A pending or failed operation needs to finish, retry, or be corrected before the serving configuration changes.
A deployment is blockedConfirm that your account can deploy to the selected site and that the plan identifies the intended files.
A file action failsConfirm the path is within the site's document root and refresh if another update changed the file.
TLS is not activeComplete the domain's DNS verification and inspect the domain status for the specific missing record or conflict.
