The apartment-vs-townhome framing maps more cleanly onto containers:
- An apartment shares walls, plumbing, air — neighbour noise/smells leak in.
That's the experience on shared hosting.
- A townhome in a gated community keeps the shared upside (security, gates,
community centre = the server/host) but isolates each unit. That's the
containerized story.
Discovery against the demo account on whp01 surfaced several inaccuracies:
- Cache is Valkey (Redis wire-compatible), not Redis or Memcached.
No Memcached is offered as a separate service.
- Site Monitoring is the sidebar label (not 'AI Monitor').
- 'Add a domain' has no Primary/Add-on distinction.
- Sites form: 'Container Type' (not 'Site type'), Number of Containers
(1-10 for horizontal scaling), CPU per Container (default 0.25),
Memory per Container (default 256MB), SSL inline on the same form.
- Backups: default retention 5 days / 10 backups; on-demand + scheduled;
S3 backup targets are visible and configurable.
- Email: per-domain settings live behind 'Setup Instructions' on the
Email page; mail server hostname is on the Dashboard (per-server,
e.g. mail01.cloud-hosting.io), not per-domain.
Also reworked the screenshot pipeline:
- New shots.config.ts targets the real index.php?page=... URLs
- Added redactSensitive() step that runs before each screenshot to swap
server names, IPs, mail hostnames, and demo-user-isms with neutral
placeholders. This keeps docs portable across the fleet.
- Hides .brand-full and .navbar-text (top-bar server identifier and
Welcome greeting).
- Captured 9 real WHP screenshots; removed stale placeholders.
- Remove smtp.anhonesthost.com row from service-hostnames partial — we
don't operate a single shared SMTP gateway; mail server hostnames are
per-domain and listed on the WHP Dashboard
- Drop SSH tunneling section from service-hostnames reference (not a
supported access path)
- Point email-client setup at the Dashboard for the per-domain host
rather than assuming a 'mail.<yourdomain>' pattern
Placeholders are 1440x900 'Screenshot pending' PNGs that will be
overwritten by real captures via 'npm run screenshots' once a demo
user is provisioned.
