Create site

Introduction

In this section, you can create a new site on your server. Sites are accessible in the main menu and every server's own menu.

Vito allows you to see all the sites in a project (main menu) or sites in a specific server (server's own menu).

Also, you can easily navigate to projects, servers and sites from the top navigation bar.

Create a new site

You can create a new site using the sites section on top navigation bar or navigating to the sites section in the server's own menu.

To create a new site, you need to provide the following information:

Select a site type

Select a site type that your application is based on. Read more about site types.

Domain

The domain of your site. You can use a custom domain or a subdomain. Make sure to add the domain to your DNS provider and point it to your server's IP address.

After creation, you can add more domains and manage SSL per domain from the Domains page.

Aliases

You can add aliases to your site. Aliases are additional domains that point to the same site. For example, you can add www.example.com as an alias for example.com.

Aliases are managed as alias domains once the site is created.

Site type fields

Every site type has its own fields that you need to fill in. For example, if you select the WordPress site type, you will need to provide the WordPress admin username and password.

User

Every site requires a system user. VitoDeploy creates a dedicated user on the server for each site to ensure full isolation between sites, and in v4.x a user can be shared across several sites.

Read more about isolation. You can also install per-site runtimes and package managers through Site Tooling.
