    Hi, I want to setup an IPv6 only website on 3.2.5. Adding a site automatically puts an * in the IPv4 box. There appears to be no obvious way of removing it. Can I without editing the vhosts file directly?

    No, this is not possible. But you could simply remove the A records for the domain, and only leave AAAA records (this is best practice anyway)

    Thank you. It works and Letsencrypt adds certificate. As an aside as we head towards IPv6 only servers - why is it best practice to add a redundant IPv4 entry?

    It's best practice to use "*" as it will listen on all interfaces. In the future, I think we will change it as the current system causes confusion to some users. My plan would be to disable the whole options by default and always use "*", unless the admin enables the IP options.
