  1. Yes, it is possible to pay without PayPal. Other options are to pay with a credit or debit card processed by PayPal (which you do not need a PayPal account for), or via crypto. If you decide to pay with crypto, we require 6 months payment at a time because it's too much work to manually verify crypto payments every month. On all VPS plans, no matter how you pay, we offer 10% discount when you pay for 6 months upfront. Once you click on any plan tile, you'll see this discount offer confirmed in writing on the page for you.
  2. The Venus plan (and all the VPS plans) can easily handle 1 or many WordPress sites. All VPS plans come with unlimited bandwidth, which means there is no limit or cap on the total number of daily hits that your VPS websites can get. If your WP site on our VPS becomes very popular and you get a large amount of daily visitors, our VPS can handle that just fine. Of course, you will want to make sure you have anti-spam and anti-bot attack protection on your WP install, even on a VPS. You may be aware of the risk that comes with using WP on our shared hosting, since WP is bloated software and can often get attacked by bots (which then causes the account load to get too high, and results in account suspension). The same risk of bot attacks exists when WP is installed onto a VPS, but the difference is that if this happens on a VPS, the load does not impact our other users. We'd still recommend making sure you have WP security plugins installed, so that bots cannot repeatedly attack your VPS WordPress site and risk slowing it down for your website visitors. Please note that a VPS is basically a machine with an OS installed, so if you're not comfortable with the command line, you can request that we install a free dashboard onto the VPS for you when it is created. Popular free dashboards are Hestia and KeyHelp. Since you mention WordPress, Hestia offers a straightforward "one-click install" feature for WP (that you can read more about here), that may be helpful for you.
  3. You're very welcome. ? This support request is being escalated to our root admins who can install Hestia for you.
  4. I believe that technically Plesk can be put onto a VPS but it would add something like $15 USD/month to the VPS cost because it needs a license. Otherwise, for free control panels, we usually recommend Hestia or KeyHelp. Both of these offer demo sites, you can see which one you prefer. The Hestia demo can be found here (look for the "Try the Demo" button) and the KeyHelp demo can be found here (look for the "View Live Demo Now" button). I've used them both and they feel quite similar. Hestia seems to be more popular, just from what I've seen folks asking to be added to their VPSes. One notable difference is that Hestia has a "one-click install" feature for WordPress, which may be relevant to you if you're planning on using WP. Please let us know if you want to explore adding Plesk for a higher cost, or which of the free ones you'd like installed. (If you're comfortable with the command line, you can install either of the free ones yourself too, as long as you haven't done anything on your VPS yet, because both control panels need a freshly-installed OS with nothing changed on it yet.)
  5. Glad you found it. ? There is a screenshot in the guide of where to find it, but maybe we could make the steps a bit clearer and specify to check on the Get Started tab. I often forget where to look for it myself, I don't know why it feels so easy to miss. A usual warning we give anyone using Node it to keep a close eye on your account load. Node is a major cause of accounts getting suspended, so you can keep an eye on the load caused by your account here: https://heliohost.org/dashboard/load/ I'll mark this thread as [Answered] since the problem is resolved but please start a new request if you get stuck, and we'll be happy to try and help.
  6. I've added both of those for you. Please note that it may take up to 2 hours for them to fully work. If after a full 2 hours they don't work on your side, please make sure you clear your web browser cache: https://wiki.helionet.org/misc/clear-your-cache
  7. This support request is being escalated to our root admins.
  8. Please do not create duplicate posts for the same request. This has been answered in the Customer Service section: https://helionet.org/index/topic/63284-new-domain-requirement-extensions-enable-and-domain-document-root-change-request/#findComment-285333
  9. I've added the domain for you. Please note that it may take up to 2 hours for your new domain to fully work. If after a full 2 hours it doesn't work on your side, please make sure you clear your web browser cache: https://wiki.helionet.org/misc/clear-your-cache Python is enabled by default, both versions 3.9 and 3.12 are available. You can read more about how to check for what packages are installed, and how to ask for any others you may need at the following link. Please make sure to check the list of things already installed, so you don't ask for packages that are already available: https://wiki.helionet.org/tutorials/python The default webroot on a main domain is the /httpdocs folder. The webroot for the addon domain will be the folder named 'coursewagon.helioho.st' inside the Home directory. Since you deleted and recreated your account only a short while ago, these defaults should be in effect. If you see something different in your File Manager, please give us a screenshot of the issue to help us troubleshoot further.
  10. I've escalated your request to the root admins who can change your forum display name for you. ?
  11. I've added that domain for you. Please note that it may take up to 2 hours for your new domain to fully work. If after a full 2 hours it doesn't work on your side, please make sure you clear your web browser cache: https://wiki.helionet.org/misc/clear-your-cache In the meantime, please either: - Point your domain to the HelioHost nameservers: `ns1.heliohost.org` and `ns2.heliohost.org`, or - Create A and/or AAAA records and point them to the IP address for the server you're on. You can find the IP address to use inside Plesk > Websites & Domains > [domain name] > and check at the bottom of the page.
  12. Thank you for the donation! ? This support request is being escalated to our root admins who can increase your account storage once they verify the transaction.
  13. I've escalated this request to the attention of the root admins who can help with this. Just in case you weren't already aware, you can request to change your forum account name, instead of deleting and starting over (if that's your intention behind the deletion). If you'd prefer a rename, just let us know what new forum username you'd like and the root admins can help with that, too.
  14. If everything is working as expected now, I'll mark this thread as [Solved] but if you need help with anything else please feel free to start a new request thread and we'll be happy to help. ?
  15. Hello! We don't own the ".in.us" domain so this isn't one of the free domains we can offer. We can offer domains ending with "helioho.st" and "heliohost.us". Your other option was possible, so I have now added "insider.in.heliohost.us" to your account. Please note that it may take up to 2 hours for your new domain to fully work. If after a full 2 hours it doesn't work on your side, please make sure you clear your web browser cache: https://wiki.helionet.org/misc/clear-your-cache
  16. Hello! Users cannot yet add subdomains themselves, but an admin can make the changes for you, just let us know what subdomain you want added. There's more details on subdomain management here.
  17. I've added the k79 subdomain for you, please give it a full 2 hours to fully work. If after a full 2 hours it doesn't work on your side, please make sure you clear your web browser cache: https://wiki.helionet.org/misc/clear-your-cache Per your request, I have removed and re-added the next subdomain, please also give it an entire 2 hours to work fully. When domains are deleted, their files are also deleted. I took a backup before the delete, so in case you need any files from the old domain. You can download the backup here: https://heliohost.org/backup If you're not sure how to extract the backup files, please follow our how-to guide here: https://wiki.helionet.org/tutorials/plesk/account-backups If you continue to have issues with the Softaculous install, please create a new topic for the issue, since this thread was for 'add a domain' and has been marked as [Solved]. In the new topic please make sure to provide 1) the name of the software package you're trying to install, 2) the settings you used (if different from the defaults) when installing it, and 3) any error messages seen during the install inside Softaculous.
  18. I've added that one for you. Please note that it may take up to 2 hours for your new subdomain to fully work. If after a full 2 hours it doesn't work on your side, please make sure you clear your web browser cache: https://wiki.helionet.org/misc/clear-your-cache
  19. I have now added domain 'projects.helioho.st' to your account. Typically we need to know the full domain including the TLD ending but since your main domain ends with helioho.st I took a guess that you wanted a similar TLD to that one. Please let us know if this isn't what you wanted. You can refer to this guide on how to request more domains, if you'd like more added later on. Please note that it may take up to 2 hours for your new domain to fully work. If after a full 2 hours it doesn't work on your side, please make sure you clear your web browser cache: https://wiki.helionet.org/misc/clear-your-cache
  20. I've changed the main domain on your account for you. Please note that it may take up to 2 hours for your new domain to fully work. If after a full 2 hours it doesn't work on your side, please make sure you clear your web browser cache: https://wiki.helionet.org/misc/clear-your-cache Please note there is a risk of data loss when main domains are changed, so I made a full backup for you before I made the changes. You can download the backup here: https://heliohost.org/backup If you're not sure how to extract the backup files, please follow our how-to guide here: https://wiki.helionet.org/tutorials/plesk/account-backups
  21. Those have both been added for you. Please note that it may take up to 2 hours for them to fully work. If after a full 2 hours they don't work on your side, please make sure you clear your web browser cache: https://wiki.helionet.org/misc/clear-your-cache
  22. Users cannot yet make domain changes themselves, but an admin can help. Let us know the domain you want added as your new main domain, and we can make the changes for you: https://wiki.helionet.org/management/main-domain Please note that removing domains will delete the files associated with the domain so make sure you have a backup first: https://wiki.helionet.org/tutorials/plesk/account-backups#making-your-own-manual-account-backup
  23. Thanks for confirming. I'm guessing you updated the email address on this forum account because I've now found a hosting account attached to the same email address as your forum account. That's how we double-check identity to make sure a reset request actually came from the account owner. ? I've reset your account as requested. You should receive an email shortly so you can take the next steps to recreate it. I made a backup before the reset, so if you discover you need any of your old files after all, you can download the backup here: https://heliohost.org/backup If you're not sure how to extract the backup files, please follow our how-to guide here: https://wiki.helionet.org/tutorials/plesk/account-backups
  24. Thank you for confirming. I've unsuspended the account associated with that domain, please give it a few minutes to get back up and running. To prevent further account suspensions, please make sure you follow the Terms of Service.
  25. You're not messing anything up by replying. We mark issues as [Solved] to make it easy to tell if there's a reply on non-Solved threads. However I saw there was a reply on this thread, so we do still check them anyway. ? I'm glad to hear that the billing page is behaving now. Once you're ready to add credit, I'd suggest making a new thread just so your new request isn't accidentally missed, but it's no big deal either way.
