Is there any way to install a web server panel after a create a droplet with Ubuntu 14.04 for WordPress

Posted on December 14, 2014

Dear DIgital Ocean Community,

This is the first time I ask something here. I just create a droplet by applying an image name “Ubuntu 14.04 WordPress”.

The server is very good, run WordPress Incredibly fast and I love it. But, is there any way to install a web server panel on it? I’m not good at linux command line.

Look forward for any useful help in this great community.

Thanks in advance.

Sure, there are plenty of free (and efficient) ones. Webmin is one of the more popular control panels. Here’s a step-by-step tutorial on how to install it on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Vesta is another popular one. There’s also a tutorial on how to install it on Ubuntu. Notice that it’s dedicated to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, so you might consider that while setting up

In case you want more, here’s a nice list of free alternatives, and another more comprehensive one. I don’t know about your needs, but personally I’d go simple like Vesta not full blown ones like Webmin. But this is definitely a matter of needs, and taste, so you’re the only one who should make this decision
