Hi Ben,

Wappler only offers creating new servers with 3 Cloud Providers - Linode, Digital Ocean and Hertzner.

Vultr used to be an option under Cloud Providers in the previous SSH Cloud method, but somehow it didn't make a cut in the Resources Manager.

To add a server outside the 3 included cloud providers - the steps will be:

  1. Create a new instance on the Cloud Hosting platform such as Vultr.
  2. SSH Key - Some platforms such as Vultr allow adding SSH public key on the platfrom and then assign it to any instance. Other platforms may need to add / upload SSH public key manually from the local PC.
  3. In Resources Manage - Right Click on Cloud Providers > Add New Provider > select Custom under Provider > click on Connect
  4. Then right click on the Servers > Import Existing Server > Give it a name, Leave user as root, add IP address of the newly created instance in Step 1 > click on Import
  5. After the new remote server appears under Servers > right on the new server > click on System Check. after it finishes successfully, again right click on the new server > click on Open SSH Terminal to verify that the remote server is reachable from Wappler

Thank you for your reply, as usual, you have been most helpful.

Maybe @Teodor should have a look at rehashing the Documentation :thinking:

PS: Maybe also state that a SSH Key is a requirement :exclamation_question_mark:

You're always welcome, Ben.

I have added SSH key step in the post above. Thank you for mentioning it in your message.
