CWP needs to move forward - Fast

CWP needs to move forward @Jose , not only with full AlmaLinux 9 support, but also AlmaLinux 10.

And drop support for the Way Past EOL CentOS 7.

Other control panel competitors already support AlmaLinux 10 like cPanel, CyberPanel, ApisCP, Webuzo to mention a few.

Most of these also have native support for PHP 8.4 & 8.5 built-in.

Meanwhile CWP is stuck at AlmaLinux 8, because it is compatible with CentOS 7. :/

Don't get me wrong, I'm a big supporter of CWP as people know, and how certain modules can be managed and updated by themselves.
BUT there is some point you have to look around.

We have been waiting for CWP to be updated properly since 2023. I had contact with almost the entire team of CWP, but they stopped responding (and a few blocked me because I continued asking for an update).

I am also a big fan of CWP because this is the only control panel that can compete with paid control panels like cPanel, Plesk, etc.. but since the development has been slowed (maybe abandoned), this has dropped its market share a lot.

We need it to be compatible with AlmaLinux 9 and 10, but the support team doesn't bother about the forum and the feedback.

One more thing, they have stopped responding to the support tickets, too. I raised a support ticket on Feb 25, 2026, but despite multiple reminders, they are not responding.

Agreed.

@josemnunez

Tagged him wrong before, but he does sometimes look at the forums, so does Igor.

I'm beginning to wonder if there wasn't a falling out between the 3 developers at this point.

Bug fixes continue to be released.
But no real updates like for new PHP versions, even 8.1 or 8.3 that php.net has released.

And we won't even talk about the forums falling apart, first the SSL, not the icons over the message box aren't working.

I did create a neutral forums at sysadmin.help (shameless plug), that cover CWP, CyberPanel, CSF, OWASP, and any others that may be suggested.

There's also an area for Cat and Computer Meme's.  ;D
