CWP 1.7 – What has actually been fixed? Community feedback
« on: August 06, 2026, 09:44:28 PM »
Now that we've reached CWP 1.7, I'd like to understand the current state of the platform and compare experiences with other administrators.

After the silent transition from 0.9.8.12.44 to the new 1.x series, I experienced several issues that mainly affected the new UI. Looking through the forum, it seems I was not the only one.

These are the issues I have personally encountered:

- YUM Manager inaccessible or stuck.
- ModSecurity management not working from the UI.
- Firewall management issues.
- PHP Selector not working correctly.
- New Backup module (still marked as Beta) with poor email reporting:
    - notifications often don't specify whether the backup was local or remote;
    - there is no clear summary of which accounts completed successfully and which failed;
    - overall reporting is not sufficient for production environments.
- SSL certificate generation/management issues.
- Occasional problems with Roundcube.

The good news is that, on my servers, the backend itself has remained functional. Most operations continue to work correctly from the command line, which suggests that many of the regressions are related to the new UI rather than the underlying services.

What concerns me most is not a single bug, but the impact these updates had on production environments. A control panel used to manage production servers should prioritize stability and reliability. Releasing updates that introduce regressions into core administrative functions creates unnecessary operational risks, especially for administrators managing multiple servers.

Now that several updates have already been released and we're at version 1.7, I'd like to hear from other users.

- Which issues have actually been resolved?
- Which problems are you still experiencing?
- Is 1.7 stable enough for daily production use?
- Have you found any new regressions that haven't yet been discussed?
- Has the new Backup module become reliable, or are there still significant limitations?

I'm not interested in starting a complaint thread. My goal is to build an accurate picture of the current state of CWP 1.7 so that administrators can make informed decisions and developers can better understand which areas still need attention.

I appreciate any feedback from those running CWP in real production environments.
