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

A recipe manager normally means two containers, a database, an admin account, three volumes, a domain and a certificate before the first recipe. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick Tandoor Recipes from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain and target server, then set the Administrator Username, Administrator Email and Timezone and either enter your own administrator password or leave it blank for xCloud to generate one securely.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the official Tandoor Recipes 2.6.15 image, pinned by immutable digest with pinned PostgreSQL 17.6 alongside it, mount the tandoor_db, tandoor_media and tandoor_static volumes, and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Sign In And Import A Recipe

    Open your domain, sign in with the administrator credentials you set or xCloud generated, and create or import your first recipe. Rotate the initial password inside Tandoor.

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.

Came from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

What is Tandoor Recipes?

Tandoor Recipes is an open-source, self-hosted recipe manager with meal planning, shopping lists, imports and household collaboration, released under the GPL-3.0-or-later licence. This template deploys version 2.6.15.

How do I change the administrator password?

Inside Tandoor. ADMIN_USERNAME, ADMIN_EMAIL and ADMIN_PASSWORD initialise the administrator only once; later environment edits do not reset the account.

Is there an import size limit?

The xCloud proxy caps request bodies at 100 MB, below Tandoor's own 512 MB limit. A recipe photo fits easily, but a cookbook import over 100 MB fails with a 413 before Tandoor sees it; split large imports into batches.

How do I upgrade?

Review the upstream release and migration notes, take a consistent database-and-media backup, then update. Roll back with the prior image set and its matching backup; never delete named volumes during an upgrade.

What does xCloud configure automatically?

The pinned Tandoor Recipes image, the url, administrator username and administrator password shown in the credentials panel, persistent storage on tandoor_db, tandoor_media and tandoor_static, the domain and the HTTPS route. Tandoor Recipes stays on internal port 8080, reachable only through xCloud nginx.

What should I back up?

tandoor_db and tandoor_media together at one consistent recovery point. tandoor_static contains generated assets. Test restoration before relying on it.

Does xCloud automatically back up or update Tandoor Recipes?

No. The template pins Tandoor Recipes 2.6.15 by immutable digest; new installations use the pinned release, existing sites are not automatically upgraded. Back up first, read the upstream release notes, then update the image on your own schedule. Server-level backups and snapshots are available on every Cloud VPS.

What are the server requirements, and why does this page sell 6 GB?

The template manifest asks for 2 CPU cores, 2 GiB of RAM and 10 GiB of disk as a floor for Tandoor Recipes. This page sells the 6 GB tier as the entry rung, with real headroom above that floor.

What survives a restart?

Everything on tandoor_db, tandoor_media and tandoor_static, because they are persistent named volumes. Restarting the container does not touch that data.

Is xCloud officially partnered with Tandoor Recipes?

No. No official partnership or endorsement between xCloud and the Tandoor Recipes project has been verified. This is a deployment and server-management option for the open-source Tandoor Recipes project.

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.
