Understanding the "List of Instances" Feature in Your Apex Managed Panel

At Apex Managed Hosting, we make it simple for you to manage your hosting services through Your Apex Managed Panel. One of the key features available in your client area is the List of Instances. Whether you’re managing multiple sites or just one, this section provides a centralized overview of all your instances. From viewing and filtering to sorting and tagging, the List of Instances ensures your workflow remains efficient and organized.

Here’s a detailed breakdown of this feature and how to make the most of it.

Accessing Your Instances

When you log in to Your Apex Managed Panel, you’ll find a dashboard that displays all of your installed instances. This includes existing instances, instances currently being installed, and even those that may have encountered installation issues. All of your instances are grouped under the My Instances section, ready for you to manage.

Key Features of the "List of Instances"

1. View Modes

Switch between different view modes to tailor your experience.

• List View offers a detailed display of your instances, ideal for quick scanning and management.
• Tile View presents your instances visually, with a preview of each website for quick identification.

Tip: Pick the mode that works best for your needs. Tile View creates a clean and visual overview, while List View is great for detailed management.

2. Selecting Instances

You can select one or more instances to perform actions like:

• Clearing Cache: Instantly refresh your site performance.
• Sharing Instances: Share access with your team or collaborators.
• Removing Selected Instances: Easily delete instances you no longer need.

Tip: Use bulk select to manage multiple instances at once, saving time.

3. Filtering Options

Efficiently locate specific instances using filtering tools.

• Filter by tags to quickly narrow down your list.
• Click on a tag to automatically enable the filter and display related instances.

Tip: Filters are especially helpful if you’re managing a large number of instances with varying purposes.

4. Sorting Instances

Organize your instances based on your preferences. You can sort them by:

• Title
• Visitors (site traffic)
• Bandwidth (resource usage)
• Storage
• From the newest (recently added or updated instances)

Tip: Sorting by bandwidth or visitors can help prioritize which sites need attention.

5. Tags for Organization

Using tags is one of the most powerful ways to stay organized, especially when managing instances across different projects or fields.

How to Create and Assign Tags:

1. Click on Assign Tags in the panel.
2. Press Add New to create a new tag.
3. Enter a descriptive tag name and choose a color for easy visual identification.
4. Click Create & Assign to save the tag and assign it to an instance.

You can assign tags even after an instance has been installed. Tags can also be removed or adjusted as needed.

Example: Use tags like "E-commerce," "Blog," or "Marketing" to group instances for different purposes, making it easier to find what you need at a glance.
