    Indeed, the effects suck!

    Hehe, it's been discussed many times. Doesn't the "white flash" at LES "suck"? :) If it doesn't we can add an option to add this "white flash" effect as the transition and problem would be solved then.

    If there are other suggestions - they're really welcome. For those who want "no transitions" at all - there is already an option for this.

    For me the DA UI is very expanded and not compact. I prefer to see everything on the screen without scrolling, specially in the case of file manager. I dont think people really care about the animations. People actually like to get stuff done quickly as possible so the UI being simple, light, obvious, working, snappy and responsive will be really appreciated.

    I don't really know why most of the people call it "animations" and not "transitions" :) When you're here, click any URL on LES, for example home logo, and you'll get a 'white flash' transition.

    We're open for suggestions if you have something to offer.

    "specially in the case of file manager" - v2 of it is planned, no ETA on it though. It'll be more OS-like file-manager, likely opened in a new tab by default, and having more natural look&feel to usual file managers.

    Thank you for the feedback!

    E. G show all users, takes quite a few seconds to load. Then searching there... Even takes time to type a single letter.

    Hehe, this is not something about "animations", and not a result of "transitions". I'd call it a bug/problem. How many users do you list on 1 page? I'd try to reproduce it.

    Thank you!

    Not to be negative or anything, but I still see the issues with my MXroute DA servers ... :#

    Maybe fix was reverted at some point?

  • Crazy thing happening with open_basedir, when the server has multiple PHP versions available.

    open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/usr/bin/gzip) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/user_name/:/tmp/:/var/tmp/:/opt/alt/php72/usr/share/pear/:/dev/urandom:/usr/local/php73/lib/:/usr/local/php72/lib/:/usr/local/php53/lib/:/usr/local/php73/lib/:/usr/local/lib/php/) ..

    The phpinfo() from within the application shows /usr/local/php73/lib/php.ini and /usr/local/php73/lib/php.conf.d/10-directadmin.ini as parsed with no explicit open_basedir set.

    Where would I find a per domain php.ini, as a workaround? It looks as though there's a template some place that adds the user's home. I'd be looking to add in /usr/bin, to allow gzip to function, if this is the correct method.

    It wisnae me! A big boy done it and ran away.

    Hi Lee,

    Reduced it from 500 to 50, though it's still meh, not instant, takes a second to load 50. Not that it matters much now, it's worse with 500 obviously.

    Miguel is awesome! He helped us to find the culprit :) Backend didn't compress JSON output there, and if network speed is slow, it takes time to download the list. It has been fixed in pre-release.

    Edit: And now DA is much, much faster, literally every section loads instantly.

  • @smtalk or anyone else,
    Is there a master list of all directadmin conf options? I feel like there's something new new with every other version and some stuffs are not preloaded by default.

    ^ Interesting article, thus demonstrating why a home partition is a good idea. Who wants to mess about like that, when it's avoidable? (rhetorical). I don't use xfs (when I remember) but for a different reason; it doesn't shrink.

  • The provider Im using redirects to the privatelabel.com:2222 instead of mydomain.com:2222 . Is there a way to change it to latter?

    I noticed that DA uses a different index page when serving the https with no site yet? Where do you edit that secure index.html?

    Also, when installing ssl it has no box for intermediate, root or bundle. You need to know how to paste it in correct order in that box for certificate. That might confuse users. Thanks!

  • Started to use DA with a purpose today by migrating a live cPanel site.
    Going well so far.
    One thing that I noticed was the lack of a mod_security interface, to check loaded rules and the log etc.

    Having used an oscommerce derivative, amongst others for well over a decade, I can say that mod_sec is worthwhile even without a WP instance. As it happens, the migrated site is a WP one, 'cos Cloudlinux/cPanel caused major grief with max. memory availability (after 2 days of messing with settings). ;-)
