Release Notes


05 October 2026

New
  • Traffic Protection can be toggled on/off

    Anyone with Managed Cloud Containers can now enable or disable Traffic Protection for individual Containers. You can find the Traffic Protection toggle on the Containers Settings screen in the Control Panel. Traffic Protection can also be toggled on/off at a server level. By default, Traffic Protection is on. As always, you can add Server Management today. Read more about our Traffic Protection work on the blog.

New
  • Google Tag Manager image now available for Cloud Containers

    To better support server-side tracking for Google Tag Manager, we’ve made an unmodified instance of Google’s GTM Docker image available as a pre-built image on Cloud Containers. As the blog explains, this idea came straight from a SiteHost customer.

Improved
  • Logs and richer data visibility added to metrics interface

    You can now view logs for any Cloud Container or Cloud Container Server alongside all your other data in the metrics interface. Filter by server, by Container, and by any timespan from the last five minutes to the three months. We've also added a lot more visibility into request rates, HTTP status codes, and IPs accessing your sites. Catch up on all the updates to the metrics interface in the blog.

24 July 2026

Improved
  • More endpoints and functionality for our Golang client library

    We released v0.7.0 of GoSH, our Golang client library. It's a major expansion of API coverage, introducing more endpoints and functionality coverage, as well as fixing some bugs.

  • Terraform Provider now uses SiteHost API v1.5

    We've released version 2.0.0 of our Terraform Provider, making use of the updated GoSH package and SiteHost API v1.5. You'll get more reliable server provisioning, and properly restored job polling after server deletes or upgrades. The change locks the provider to SiteHost API v1.5, meaning the API version can no longer be changed.

15 July 2026

New
  • Quickly check Cloud Container disk usage

    We've added a quick way to visualise your Cloud Container server's disk allocation in the Control Panel. Disk Usage Breakdown shows how much of your server disk space is used by files, docker images and databases.

09 June 2026

Improved
  • Better ABN/ACN validation for .au domains

    We've made some tweaks to improve the ABN/ACN validation process since we became an auDA accredited registrar, making .au domain registrations more painless.

09 February 2026

New
  • Manage NS records from DNS Zones

    We've added support for creating, deleting and modifying NS records from the DNS Zones tab in the Control Panel. This lets you delegate subdomains to another provider (as is often required by managed email platforms) without leaving the DNS Zones tab.

15 January 2026

Improved
  • Displayed .au domains registrar changed

    We've become auDA accredited, meaning we can register .au domains for you without having to go through a reseller. Any .au domains registered by us before the end of 2025 will now show Webslice as the registrar. Read about our auDA accreditation in the blog.

17 November 2025

Improved
  • Improved domain contact selection

    We’ve improved the dropdown field to select contacts when editing a domain. It’s now a full text search field that loads gradually, making it faster and easier to find contacts, even if you have hundreds or thousands on your account. This change should make managing your domain contacts much smoother.

16 October 2025

Removed
  • All unmanaged Cloud Containers are now unmonitored

    As explained in the blog, there was a time when we applied monitoring alerts to all Cloud Containers, even unmanaged ones, so we could keep a close eye on the platform. That's no longer necessary, so we're taking this internal monitoring off unmanaged Cloud Containers. Newer containers, managed servers, and alerts and monitoring that you have set up for yourself are all unaffected. As always you can add your own monitoring or add Server Management today.
