We have heard it time and time again. “Managed site hosting”, “managed server hosting”, “managed updates”… there is so much more than just Updates, backups and Monitoring needed to run a successful agency full of sites!
Yeah any service can backup, update and monitor a site. But not all services are created equal.
Ours is invested into daily, new code deployed multiple times a day – every day. We react and respond to emerging threats, add new hack signatures and patterns daily, and our detection of Joomla and WordPress hacks in file is second to none due to my hands on approach to investigating every single hack personally.
We have been adding some amazing new features, some announced in our blog , but many not, the blog posts include:
On Christmas Day 2020 we revealed a brand new platform
The new platform is now Powered by PHP 8 – yes that’s right, bang up to date PHP version, and also running Symfony 5.2.1, bang up to date.
This means we can now power ahead in releasing new features at an incredible rate and be future proofed.
We also removed a lot of the technical debt that we had gained over the years, deleting over 500,000 lines of code, and deploying over 1million lines of code!
Thank you.
“I just want to say a personal thank you to all those that are subscribers and have been since we launched in 2012, you know who you are – your energy, suggestions and feature requests keep me on my toes daily striving to be the best service that we can possibly be.“
We have all been there. The customer calls and says people are telling him that his Joomla Site is spamming them, and on investigation the spammer has misused the `Send Copy To Submitter` feature of Joomla. Well now mySites.guru identifies this setting and alerts you if its not disabled.
One of the long standing core features of Joomla is the Contact Form.
Ok its 22:03PM Friday night and I have one more surprise feature for you, deployed and ready for your use this weekend!Enjoy!
One of the great features about Joomla is the Post Installation Message. However when you are managing 1000s of Joomla sites, it can be tiresome to silence these message and remove the notification in your Joomla admin console – This is no longer a problem for mySites.guru subscribers!
One of the most requested features this week was the ability to update the snapshot of all sites in one go. This is useful just before a mass update of Joomla or WordPress sites.
Ok, I screwed up. I admit it and Im sorry. We recently introduced Unlimited Backup Schedules per site and in doing so introduced a logic bug that caused us to remove the “Backup All Sites” in one go feature.
Lets talk about that – tl;dr; The Backup All Sites button has returned!!! 🙂
One of the unique qualities our service has always had, is the way we develop in a very agile way – responding to emerging hack threats, security incidents – and requests from our loyal customers! This means we can quickly and seamlessly implement and deploy new features at the drop of a hat’s notice. With Zero Downtime. Same Day, sometimes many times a day!
