Velocity5.0

Cloud-based server control panel for hosting WordPress sites

spinupwp.com ↗

SpinupWP now writes DNS records for you, starting with Cloudflare and Route 53.

◆Current state
SpinupWP is moving server and site work out of SSH and third-party consoles into its own dashboard and API. September completed the site-settings API, October's dashboard rebuild added bulk actions, labels and filters, and on November 3 SpinupWP began managing A records through Cloudflare and Route 53. The API now also lists and manages SSH keys for accounts and site users.
◆Where it's heading
Each release removes one more step a WordPress operator used to do elsewhere: PHP settings, software updates, disabling sites, and now DNS. The pattern points to a full site lifecycle, from creation through deletion, handled inside SpinupWP.
◆Prediction
More DNS providers are the likely next step, since the launch says it is starting with two; whether DNS management also reaches the API is not shown in the entries.

    Bulk PHP Version Changes

    PHP versions can now be changed across many sites at once from the Sites dashboard, with a filter to find sites on old versions. Another bulk action on the rebuilt dashboard, moving fleet chores out of per-site screens.

    API: Manage SSH keys for your account and site users

    The API now returns each site user's SSH keys and can manage account and site-user keys, where before it could only replace them blind. It continues the push to make every dashboard task scriptable.

    DNS Providers

    Connecting Cloudflare or Route 53 lets SpinupWP create and remove a site's A records from creation to deletion, closing the last manual step in launching a site. It extends the product's habit of absorbing work admins used to do in other tools.

    API: Manage site settings

    SpinupWP finished its site-settings API, adding backups, page cache and the remaining settings screens to the HTTPS, PHP and domain endpoints from earlier in the year. Agencies can now script nearly all site configuration.

    Disable Sites

    Disable Sites lets teams take a site offline without deleting it or manually editing Nginx configuration — the files, database, and config are preserved. This fills a gap for agencies managing client sites during maintenance or transitions, where the previous options were either deleting the site or SSHing in to modify Nginx.
