Hello,

Use this post to request features you would like us to add, if I like the feature I will add it to this list:
  • Delete site button
  • Scrap email verification for hosting signup
  • Show current assigned custom domain in settings
  • Reset hosting password
  • Give free domain away to people with xxx forum posts, instead of awarding domains to a chosen few
  • Auto install of scripts within a click of a button, e.g. wordpress, phpbb
  • Auto install of zymic templates
  • Backup facilities (link)

Sorry that's a bit too bloated, but I think we could substitute something similar, e.g. offer some programs which auto install within a click of a button. I had been thinking of this idea for: wordpress, phpbb, ...

An option to change your subdomain? Will be useful for users.

Yeah, I'd be cool with that. Some people(mainly bloggers who don't really know how to code HTML/CSS) would see that as a godsend.

How about turning on fsockopen?
Tom
No, it's disabled for a reason.
Jack
As tom mentioned, its for security and won't be enabled. Same goes for email before anyone asks.

Thanks

Hey Jack, wouldn't this make sense to put this as a sticky?

Anyways, some people around here have been asking if they could change the first parts of their domains. Such as blah.zxq.net to mysite.zxq.net. Or if they could possibly change the domain that their site resides on from mysite.zxq.net to mysite.zzl.org.
EMOruffino
You can install a phpBB3 one, on the community site, there is a script that allows with the click of a button to copy files etc etc...

Yes, this has been said before, but what's the security concerns? Curiosity demands the question be asked.

With sockets enabled, bots and proxies can be setup. Additionally, sockets can be used for sending mail which circumnavigates the mail function and again creates an issue of outgoing spam.

I wouldn't mind seeing a feature that automatically installs certain (obviously free) software. As aforementioned. Would be useful. WordPress and phpBB3 would definitely be the more popular DBs to install lol. Unless you have IPB/vBulletin but then, if you can afford that, why the hell would you be using a free host?

Well, what if they bought vBulletin/IPB and spent with almost all money so he needed a free host, perhaps?

Anyway, I'd like to see the whole File Manager in Ajax like you could move a file/folder in a folder without reloading the page. smile.gif
Once again, they'll use FTP anyway but hey it'll make the non-FTP users' lives easier.

Remove a border in the frame at the website statistics. tongue.gif

Ajax hosting account would be pretty sweet. But if they did it, make an option to revert it back to the standard way (for dialup/low internet connection users, remembering that Ajax can be useless on slow connections).

Also, I'd never get vB/IPB if I knew I couldn't afford hosting afterwards. There's just no point. Besides, phpBB3 works good for me (I wouldn't mind vB though lol).
Eibwen
I suggest that they could pick Ajax or no Ajax.
No Ajax is default.
rac
Well it would be great if we could have:
-ssl.
-pop3/smtp (at least pop3).
-custom error pages.
-HTTP basic auth . Either trough .htaccess or maybe you guys could make a script to the file manager that would add the appropriate Directives in a file included by httpd.conf.
-subdomains.
-more idle time in each ftp session.Im always getting disconnected after a minute or so(not realy a feature but at least i dont start a new thread smile.gif ).
Eibwen
SSL to what?
SMTP is disabled, what is pop3?
Custom errors page is already on the features.
There are sub domains.. Do you mean sub sub domains? tongue.gif
rac
QUOTE
SSL to what?

To encrypt the traffic between the client and server.

QUOTE
what is pop3?

It's the protocol that allows you to get emails from a server remotely.

QUOTE

No, i mean like i have my own domain and would like to be able to make subdomains out ouf it.

Eibwen
Well, I think you could make sub domains by using htaccess.
Ed
QUOTE

You can already do auth with .htaccess, it's the only context in which .htaccess works, providing it has no extraneous directives outside of the auth context then this should work without a problem.

QUOTE
pop3/smtp


QUOTE(jack)

So that would be a no.

QUOTE
More idle time


It's set low for a reason, providing you're uploading / using the connection, it doesn't time out. It is so low so it allows a fair chance for everyone to get an ftp slot.
rac
Ok,it was working with .htaccess but now it outputs a 500 internal server error:

QUOTE
Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@hosting.zymic.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Gzip?

Load stress should not be divided equally. Web pages which need more resources should get more.

Sorry, I forgot about this topic, its now pinned.

No sorry.

why? ....

but cron job can activate?
EMOruffino
i think the more feature rich admin panel will be a plus... but unzipping and a ajax panel would be nice...
Sergyu
can activate cron job?
Lou
the add of a cronjob manager?
Eibwen
Yes, I need a cronjob manager!
Diogo
- fsockopen (i know "disabled for security reasons" but i really need this =p, some hosts enable it according to the member posts on forum).
- subdomains.
- delete button.
Sergyu
can activate maketime() ....
Tom

That's not a function - I think you're after mktime().

Subomain wouldnt be that good because, the free hosting you already get a subdomain so your asking to have a subdomain feature so a url would be a subdomain subdomain one.

Eg your site was

www.example.zzl.org


Subdomain subdomain

www.example1.example.zzl.org

Just looks messy in my opinion.

Yes but remember that you can use your OWN domain... subdomains should be for guys that use their own domains...
Well, about the mail()... you guys can put a "time delay" for use, something like: server = 100 mails per hour, or 10 mails per hour for each account...
Or you guys can activate it for members that use their own domain, their own internet name... doing this will be easily to control spam abuses (like the subdomain suggestion).
I think fsockopen is really needed for some simple stuff and should be actived
Karuhun
What's about PHP accelerator. Can APC activated or by specific request?
niall_john
Why is the URL file-access disabled in the server configuration. Well I hope it can be added in a future feature.
Sergyu
i request 3 times .... can you put cron job ... tell me to know....
Forge
Change the length of time you have to be inactive to be automatically logged out. Its a b***h when your editing a very long file to find out that when you save it you arent logged in and have to do it all over again.
Diogo
They should enable some functions for active members...
Midknight
How about updating your TOS, deleting the email parts that you dont have active.

I would like to see where you upload files, a choice of allowing multiple files than just 3 at a time. It might be easier just to tell people to use a FTP program.
Or some kind of unzipper feature that allows a person to upload a zip like file to the server, with it unzipping the files.

a custom Error Page would be nice, or a choice of a different styles of a error page that Zymic has to choose from would be fine to.

One more feature that would be nice is, a link or sentence that Stands Out somewhere on the homepage or forum area, that says that you dont allow Emails to be sent, That is good you dont allow ppl that option for free, even though alot of ppl want it where they dont have to modify any free scripts like wordpress, etc. that needs that option to function without no modification.

fsockopen......... bugged why is so much issues on enabling it.
phreephlow
some way to easily create compressed backups, so it is easy to download?
Valency
Bloody hell, This must be 'Whine at Zymic' Central..

I give those Admins my deepest sympathy.

Delete site button would be a blessing
