What's New✨

Our most recent upgrade was an improved sign-in process as we added social sign-on capabilities for accessing the SpinupWP app. You can register a new account or sign in to an existing one using Google, GitHub, or Twitter.

Suppose you have previously signed up using an email and password combination? No problem, you can enable a social sign-in from the Your Account > Security page.

We launched the new site dashboard screen in March, which provides you with a high-level overview of any specific site. Each section of the new dashboard clicks through to the relevant area in SpinupWP so that you can make changes with ease.

We added the ability to purge a site’s object cache and correct a site’s file permissions from the dropdown at the top on the site dashboard.

You can now modify non-root database user privileges, giving you the ability to allow individual database users access to multiple databases on a server.

Under the Nginx settings for a site, we added a new toggle that will create the necessary Nginx rewrite rules for a WordPress multisite running as a subdirectory install when enabled.

We enabled the Strict-Transport-Security header by default for any HTTPS enabled sites.

You can now see each server’s disk space usage right from the server dashboard. We also released a comprehensive article on how to audit your server’s hard disk if you’re running out of disk space.

To automatically correct file permissions for your site, head over to the site’s settings screen and click ‘Correct File Permissions’ from the dropdown by the ‘Clone Site’ button in the top right corner.

We added the ability to save notes about your servers, which you can use for logging changes you’ve made to the server or just a summary of the server’s purpose.

Existing git sites will be upgraded to use a git mirror repo on next push.

We’ve completely revamped how we handle git deployments on the backend of SpinupWP. You won’t notice any changes on the frontend for these particular updates, but great improvements have been made that will further solidify the stability and functionality of our git integration.

In addition to that, you’ll now see a “Git” tab on all sites in SpinupWP, even if they don’t have git enabled.

If your site doesn’t already have git enabled, you can enable it by clicking the “Git” toggle switch.

Now fill in the required information and if needed, install the required WordPress plugins and your site will be ready to start pulling from your repo. Please note, when implementing git on an existing site, all files that are in git will overwrite existing site files with the same path and filename. You can read more about how all of this works in our updated git documentation.
