Mixpost Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Mixpost hosting on xCloud gives you a self-hosted social media scheduler for planning and publishing posts to networks such as X, Facebook and Mastodon. Deploy Mixpost from the OneClick catalog and xCloud starts the pinned Lite v2.6.0 image with private MySQL and Redis, generates the keys and admin password, mounts four volumes and publishes it over HTTPS under /mixpost. You connect each social account with your own credentials.

What is Mixpost?

Mixpost is a social media management platform, and this template runs its open-source Lite edition. Its README says the repository contains the Lite version of Mixpost Pro, a commercial product, with Lite features kept distinct from Pro. Lite lets you create, organise and schedule posts for your networks, with a media library. Self-hosted Mixpost Lite is a scheduler you run yourself instead of a hosted one such as Buffer or Hootsuite. It is licensed under MIT.

On xCloud this template deploys Mixpost Lite v2.6.0, pinned by digest, with private MySQL 8 and Redis 7.2. Media, logs, database and queue each sit on their own volume. Pro and Enterprise features, the status page and Reverb are not included. You sign in at /mixpost/login, connecting networks needs your own OAuth app credentials, and rotating the app key breaks stored social credentials.

From Sign-Up to a Live Scheduler In Just 3 Easy Steps

Self-hosting a social scheduler normally means a container, a database, a queue, generated credentials, a domain and a certificate before a single post is drafted. This is the same result without assembling any of it by hand.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick Mixpost from the OneClick catalog. Select a domain — there's no install form; xCloud generates every credential for you.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the pinned Mixpost Lite v2.6.0 image with a digest-pinned MySQL 8.0 database and Redis 7.2 queue, neither with a published port, generate the app key, database credentials and a 32-character administrator password, mount all four storage volumes, and publish it over HTTPS at /mixpost on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Sign In And Connect An Account

    Allow a few minutes for first-boot migrations, then open your HTTPS /mixpost/login URL and sign in as admin@example.com with the generated password from your xCloud credential panel. Change the password from your Mixpost profile, then connect your social accounts.

Everything Mixpost Does, On Your Own Server

Mixpost Lite runs in full here — its scheduling dashboard and media library on infrastructure you control.

  • Schedule And Publish Posts

    Plan and publish posts for networks such as X, Facebook and Mastodon from one dashboard.

  • Your Data, Your Database

    Accounts, posts and settings live in a private MySQL database on your own server, not a third party's.

  • No Install Form

    xCloud generates the app key, database credentials and a 32-character administrator password — nothing to configure by hand.

  • The Default Password Is Replaced

    The upstream default admin password is replaced at install; it was verified rejected, so there's no leftover factory credential.

  • Large Media Uploads

    Uploads up to 200 MB for video, with the proxy limit set to match, so larger clips aren't blocked at the edge.

  • Settings Survive A Restart

    Saved tags and settings survive an xCloud Restart, and the generated password still signs in afterward.

Everything You Need To Run Your Scheduler Running 24/7

Managed hosting for Mixpost, so the parts that keep it online are not your problem.

  • Mixpost Lite v2.6.0 deployed instantly
  • Official pinned image digest
  • 32-character admin password generated for you
  • Private MySQL and Redis, no public ports
  • Free SSL certificate
  • Server backups and snapshots
  • Server security updates included
  • 30+ server locations
  • Unused balance refunded

What You Can Do With Mixpost

  • Schedule posts ahead of time

    You write posts, pick the networks and times, and let Mixpost publish them while you are away.

  • Manage several networks in one place

    You connect X, Facebook, Mastodon and other networks shipped in the image and post from one interface.

  • Reuse media

    You keep images and videos in a media library on your own server and attach them to several posts.

  • Keep your queue and credentials on your own server

    A small business that does not want its scheduling data in a hosted tool keeps it in MySQL and Redis volumes it controls.

Mixpost vs Alternatives

Buffer
Buffer is a hosted social media scheduling service. Mixpost Lite runs on a server you rent, and this page makes no feature-parity claim.
Hootsuite
Hootsuite is a hosted social media management suite. Mixpost Lite runs on a server you rent, and Pro and Enterprise features are not included in this template.
Postiz
Postiz is a separate self-hosted social media scheduler with its own OneClick page. Compare its supported networks and AI features with Mixpost Lite's before choosing.
Posting by hand
Posting directly in each network needs no server but no queue either. Mixpost lets you plan posts and media in one place, at the cost of running a stack.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.

I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.
Dumitru Butucel
xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar Ahmed
Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul Singh
So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.
Massimo Villa
Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson El
I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony Lewis
I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowell
I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently

I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan Spinoza
Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

Is Mixpost free?

Yes. Mixpost Lite is open source under the MIT licence, with the licence file linked from this page at the pinned 2.6.0 tag. xCloud bills for the Cloud VPS under it, not for Mixpost. Mixpost Pro and Enterprise are separate commercial products and are not included.

Is this Mixpost Pro?

No. It is the open-source Lite edition, which the README describes as the Lite version of the commercial Mixpost Pro. Pro and Enterprise features, the status page and Reverb are not included in this template, so do not expect them in the dashboard.

Can you self-host Mixpost with Docker?

Yes, and this Mixpost Docker hosting template does it for you: the inovector/mixpost Lite image, pinned by digest, runs beside private MySQL and Redis containers on your own server, with HTTPS in front under /mixpost. It is not a Mixpost cloud account, so posts stay with you.

How much RAM does Mixpost need?

The template manifest asks for 2048 MB of RAM as a floor for the app, MySQL and Redis together. Uploaded media and queue size grow the volumes. This page sells the 6 GB tier, which leaves wide headroom above that floor for scheduling and uploads.

How do I sign in to Mixpost?

Open /mixpost/login on your domain and sign in as admin@example.com with the generated password from the credentials. Do not delete that account, because Mixpost recreates it with the upstream default password on the next start if it is missing. Change the password from the Mixpost profile.

Does the Mixpost log password changeme work?

No. The container log prints the upstream banner Password: changeme at startup, but the install replaces that default with the generated administrator password, so changeme does not work. Sign in with the generated password from the credentials panel.

Do I need to connect my own social accounts to Mixpost?

Yes. Publishing to any network needs your own social-account OAuth connection from inside Mixpost, and xCloud does not automate that step. Lite includes the networks shipped in the image, such as X, Facebook and Mastodon, but each network's own developer rules apply.

Can I change the Mixpost administrator password in the environment?

No. ADMIN_PASSWORD is applied once at install and does not rotate an existing account if you edit it later. Change the password from the Mixpost profile instead. APP_KEY, APP_URL and mail settings are rewritten from the environment on every start.

How large can Mixpost uploads be?

Video uploads can be up to 200 MB, but a single request through Cloudflare is still capped near 100 MB. If your domain is proxied by Cloudflare, large videos may fail, so test an upload of your usual size before you schedule a campaign.

How do I back up Mixpost?

Back up all four volumes together: mixpost_storage holds uploaded media, mixpost_mysql holds the database, mixpost_redis holds queue state and mixpost_logs holds logs. Keep APP_KEY with them, because rotating it breaks stored social credentials. Test a restore.

How do I upgrade Mixpost?

A running install stays on pinned v2.6.0 until you adopt a newer template version, so catalog updates leave it alone. Back up the volumes and APP_KEY first and read the Mixpost release notes, since migrations run on start. Then sign in and check a scheduled post.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
