New Features
Automated Vulnerability Scanner
This feature automatically scans your sites for vulnerabilities, ensuring that security risks are identified and addressed promptly. With this tool, you can maintain high-security standards, reducing the risk of potential breaches.

Pause Subscription
We now offer paid users the ability to pause their subscriptions. This feature is useful for users who may need to temporarily halt their work without losing their settings and configurations. You can resume your subscription when you are ready, without any hassle.
Unique SSH/SFTP Usernames
To prevent user conflicts on live sites, we have introduced a prefix for SSH/SFTP usernames. This ensures that each user has a distinct username, thereby eliminating the possibility of overlapping or duplicate usernames.

Improvements
- Import Site Enhancements: The improved site import feature now supports larger files without any performance issues, making it easier for you to migrate large websites to our platform.
- Searchable Connected Sites: You can now easily search through your list of connected sites. This functionality makes it faster to find and manage specific sites, improving overall navigation and efficiency.

- UI/UX Enhancements: Several user interface and user experience improvements have been implemented across the platform. These enhancements make the dashboard more intuitive and easier to use.
- End of Support for Older WP Versions: We are discontinuing support for WordPress versions below 5. This decision allows us to focus on providing more robust support and enhanced features for newer versions of WordPress.
Fixes
