    Hi Till,

    First of all thanks again to the ISPConfig team for all the efforts.

    I've just read the email announcement of the 2025's Roadmap and it's exciting. I bet these improvements will help ISPConfig to grow more and have new users.

    I've also read about the NGINX reverse proxy and the ability to change the ports for HTTP and HTTPS protocols. Does that means that in ISPConfig 3.4 we will be able to run NGINX as a reverse proxy and Apache webserver behind, both in the same server?

    Thanks again,
    Olivier

    Congratulations to ISPConfig Developers. Hope to see all that happening soon.
    We already has that ability for different servers, but it is not available in the same server yet. Basically the plugin modifications are already suggested, though if I remember correctly not for nginx, but may be used to do the same with nginx.

    It would be a total game changer if both could coexist on the same server (NGINX at the front as a reverse proxy + Apache behind as normal webserver).

    In addition, if you plan, for example, to implement some cache solution like Varnish (I mean through the ISPConfig UI, not independently at OS level), probably a vast majority of users from other control panels will move massively to ISPConfig for sure.

    Yes. See:

    https://git.ispconfig.org/ispconfig/ispconfig3/-/merge_requests/1703

    Unlike other panels, ISPConfig supports native Nginx, which is typically faster than Varnish + Apache. But yes, maybe we will add support for Varnish too in future. The problem with varnish is that only the enterprise version supports https, as far as I know, so you would still have to use Apache as https endpoint, which proxies requests to varnish, which then proxies uncached requests back to Apache.

    Yes, existing WP sites can be imported into the manager. It has a function to scan all websites for WP installations and then you can select which one shall be imported into the manager.

    I hope I can make a beta version available by the end of this week. The final release date depends on whether any release-critical issues are found in the coming days.

    How can i enroll in beta and test them? i would be happy to give time testing it from now if you can point me in the right direction.

    I mainly work with webserver stack with no mail and dns. here is the command i currently using.

    Code:
    wget -O - https://get.ispconfig.org | sh -s -- --use-nginx --no-dns --no-mail --use-ftp-ports=40110-40210 --unattended-upgrades
