What's new in Reqad

Reqad is under active development. Here are recent highlights - currently at v1.0.40.

July 2026

  • Account-level file manager in the Accounts list — browse, upload, download, edit, chmod and delete files for any account.
  • Breadcrumb navigation with symlink awareness; size, octal permissions and modification time shown per entry.
  • Bulk operations: create, rename, move, chmod (owner/group/other grid), delete files or whole folders.
  • Built-in CodeMirror editor for text files under 100 KB — PHP, JS, CSS, HTML, Python, shell and SQL.
  • Compress selections to .zip / .tar.gz; extract uploaded archives into a target folder. All operations run as the account's own user and are jailed to the account's home.

May 2026

  • WordPress scanning across subfolders, with a path column and prepared statements.
  • Apache template: per-account PHP version switching via hybrid PHP-FPM pools.
  • cPanel transfer wizard: multi-step migration of domains, PHP version and databases.
  • Accounts & email: search and re-pagination; faster dashboard caching.

  • One-click self-update from the dashboard with live output, surviving PHP-FPM restarts.
  • Autoresponders: create/edit/delete with date ranges; DKIM-signed replies.
  • Roundcube and phpMyAdmin auto-update scripts that preserve config and plugins.
