Config

opencli config allows you to change the configuration of the user interface and set defaults for new accounts.

Settings are stored in /usr/local/panel/conf/panel.config file. However, it is recommended not to modify this file directly. Instead, it's best to utilize the config script. This way, any changes made are immediately applied, and the panel service is automatically restarted only when necessary.

Example:

############################## NOTICE #########################################
#                                                                             #
# Manually modifying this file is not recommended!                            #
#                                                                             #
# You should use the interface in Admin Panel > Server Configuration          #
# for applying changes to these settings.                                     #
#                                                                             #

activity_items_per_page

activity_items_per_page allows administrators to define the default number of displayed items on the /activity page, the value defaults to 25.

force_domain

force_domain enables you to specify a mandatory domain name for accessing the user panel. If a user attempts to visit the panel using any other domain, such as "their-domain.com:2083", they will be automatically redirected to "your-domain.com:2083." This feature utilizes the port option to ensure the enforcement of the specified port value as well.

force_domain=openpanel.co

port

The port setting enables you to define a custom port for the panel's operation. By default, the panel uses port 2083, but you have the flexibility to set it to any desired port. It's crucial to ensure that the chosen port is open in your firewall configuration.

port=2083

:::info After adjusting the port, it's necessary to restart the panel service to apply the new port configuration. :::

ssl

The ssl setting when enabled will force both the OpenPanel and AdminPanel to use SSL for the hostname and redirect traffic to https. This setting is by default disabled but will be automatically enabled if opencli ssl-hostname succeeded in generating an SSL for the hostname during OpenPanel installation.

ssl=no

openpanel_proxy

The openpanel_proxy setting allows you to set a custom /something that will allow users to access their openpanel interface using their domain names. For example: 'panel' will make any domain, example: 'example.com/panel' redirect to the OpenPanel.

openpanel_proxy=open_sesame

nameservers

The ns1 ns2 ns3 ns4 options allow you to set nameservers that will be used in dns zone files for newly added domains, and displayed to users on their panel dashboard. Nameservers should be added in pairs, ns1 and ns2, ns3 and ns4.

ns1=ns1.openpanel.co
ns2=ns2.openpanel.co
ns3=ns3.openpanel.co
ns4=ns4.openpanel.co

enabled_modules

In OpenPanel version 0.1.5, we implemented the Modules feature, which, by default, loads only the essential modules. Administrators also have the option to selectively disable modules they do not require.

Currently, the following modules are optional and can be disabled by the Administrator:

enabled_modules=phpmyadmin,ssh,crons,backups,wordpress,pm2,disk_usage,inodes,usage,terminal,services,webserver,fix_permissions,malware_scan,process_manager,ip_blocker,redis,memcached,elasticsearch,login_history,activity

twofa_nag

The twofa_nag option allows Administrator to set if 2FA nag should be displayed to users on their dashboard page.

twofa_nag=yes

If configured as "yes", the system will initially attempt to access a JSON file containing your custom how-to guides. In the event that the file is not available, articles from https://openpanel.co/docs/panel/ will be shown instead.
