Find your way around the portal

IN SHORT

Flashcloud's portal is organized by task, not by tool. The left sidebar groups Dashboard, Marketplace, Services, Domains, Billing, and Support, plus Goodies (Free Website, Free Transfer, Cloudflare CDN, Referrals). Every service and domain has its own detail page at /services/ or /domains/ with tools scoped to that item.

The Flashcloud portal is organized around what you're trying to do, not what tool you're using. Here's the map.

Sidebar at a glance

The left sidebar groups things by what they're for:

Portal

  • Dashboard — your home page. Recent activity, services overview, upcoming renewals, open tickets.
  • Marketplace — order more hosting, register or transfer domains, browse our shop.
  • Services — every active hosting plan, VPS, dedicated server, and addon you have.
  • Domains — every domain registered or transferred to us.
  • Billing — invoices, payment methods, billing details.
  • Support — tickets, with our team.

Goodies

  • Free Website — request a built-by-us starter site.
  • Free Transfer — request migration from another host.
  • Cloudflare CDN — manage Cloudflare proxy/cache settings on eligible services.
  • Referrals — invite friends and earn credit.

Account (top-right avatar)

  • Your profile, contact details, password, and two-factor authentication.

Service detail page

Every service in your account has a detail page at /services/<id>. The layout is the same regardless of service type:

  • Information — status, plan, IP, hostname, billing cycle, next renewal date.
  • Tool tiles — every available tool for that service, as click-through cards.
  • Quick actions — restart, reinstall (VPS), upgrade, cancel.

The tool tiles are scoped to what makes sense for that service: a shared hosting plan shows Files, Email, Databases, Subdomains, etc. A VPS shows Console, Snapshots, Firewalls, Networks. WordPress hosting shows the WordPress wizard front and center.

Domain detail page

Every domain in your account has a detail page at /domains/<id>:

  • Renew — pick years, see total at the top.
  • Auto-renew toggle.
  • Registrar lock toggle.
  • WHOIS privacy toggle.
  • Contacts editor — registrant/admin/tech/billing.
  • DNS — record editor (subpage).
  • Nameservers — editor (subpage).
  • Transfer out — get the EPP code if you're leaving.

Search

Top of the portal there's a search box. It searches your services, domains, invoices, and tickets — useful when you have dozens of services and don't want to scroll.

Mobile

The whole portal is mobile-responsive. The sidebar collapses to a hamburger menu on small screens; everything else reflows. You can open a ticket, pay an invoice, and check service status from your phone.

Common questions

Where do I go to install WordPress?

Go to Services, click your hosting plan, then open the WordPress tile. The setup wizard is right there for WordPress hosting plans.

Where do I edit DNS records?

Go to Domains, click the domain you want to change, then open the DNS subpage. It's the record editor for that domain.

How do I pay an invoice or renew a service?

Go to Billing and click the unpaid invoice to pay it. That same invoice screen is also where you renew a service.

How do I cancel or upgrade my hosting plan?

Go to Services, click the service, then choose Cancel or Upgrade. Both actions live on that service's detail page alongside quick actions like restart and reinstall.

Can I manage my account from my phone?

Yes, the whole portal is mobile-responsive. The sidebar collapses into a hamburger menu, and you can open a ticket, pay an invoice, or check service status from your phone.
