Client Dashboard

Overview ​

URL: /client/client-dashboard

The dashboard is the main entry point for your AdminBolt hosting account. It displays an overview of your hosting resources and quick-access links to all major hosting features.

AI Assistant ​

A chat box is pinned at the top of the dashboard. It lets you talk to the panel's AI Assistant in natural language - ask about your account, create or modify resources, run common operations.

  • Input box - type any question or instruction about your hosting account.
  • Send - submits the message and streams the response.
  • Clear history - wipes the current conversation context.

The AI Assistant is powered through the panel's AI Agent Hub integration. Irreversible operations, such as deleting a domain, mailbox, or database, are confirmed first: in this chat box the assistant asks whether you are sure, while over WhatsApp it asks for the confirmation word you set in the WhatsApp section below.

See AI Assistant for what the assistant can and cannot do, and for the limits that apply to it.

Home Page Layout ​

The dashboard is divided into two sections: a Main Area with category tiles and a Right Sidebar with account information and statistics.

Main Area ​

Ten category sections provide quick links to core hosting functions:

  • Domains - Domains, Zone Editor, DNS Health, Redirects, SSL Certificates, Error Pages, Access Logs, Error Logs.
  • WordPress Management - Install WordPress and Manage WordPress.
  • Files - File Manager, Private Directories, Disk Usage, FTP Accounts, Git Version Control.
  • Databases - phpMyAdmin, Databases, Database Wizard.
  • Emails - Email Accounts, Autoresponders, Forwarders, Catch All.
  • Mailing Lists - Mailing Lists, Subscribers.
  • Metrics - Visitors, Raw Accesses.
  • Security - IP Blockers, Hotlink Protection, API Keys.
  • Advanced - Track DNS, Indexes.
  • Preferences - Password & Security.

Each tile links to its respective management interface.

The sidebar displays two information panels.

General Information shows:

  • Current User - your hosting account username.
  • Shared IP Address - the server's shared IP.
  • Home Directory - your account's home path.
  • Last Login IP Address - last successful login origin.
  • Free temporary domains - the server's free domain, under which you can create subdomains. Shown only when your hosting plan includes free temporary domains. Since panel 1.9.4 it carries a warning that mail sent from an address on a free temporary domain may fail SPF and DKIM checks at other mail providers, because public DNS for the domain publishes only its A record. See Mail on a free temporary domain.
  • WhatsApp - pairing status with the AI Agent Hub. Shows Not connected with a Connect button, or Connected once paired. Click Connect to reveal the WhatsApp pairing form below.

Statistics shows current usage and limits for:

  • Disk Usage
  • Bandwidth (This Month)
  • Addon Domains
  • Subdomains
  • Parked Domains
  • Email Accounts
  • FTP Accounts
  • Databases

Each statistic displays current usage, limit, and percentage used.

Since panel 1.9.3, Addon Domains counts your domains besides the main domain of your account. With only the main domain, it shows 0, and a plan that allows 3 addon domains lets you add three domains next to your main one.

Since panel 1.9.0, Disk Usage is one bar for your files and your databases together, measured against your plan's disk space, because both use the same allowance. The databases are shown as a labelled part of the bar. The bar turns to a warning colour at 80% of the combined figure, and to a critical state at 95%. When files and databases together have used up the allowance, the dashboard says so. A plan with unlimited disk space shows Unlimited, without a percentage.

A home directory with a very large number of files can take longer to measure than the panel allows. Since panel 1.9.3 the Disk Usage card then shows the last known size instead of 0, with a note stale since the date of the last successful measurement, or cannot be measured since a date when the measurement keeps failing. Hover the note for the explanation. Your plan's disk limits and banners use that last known size. Your hosting provider is told when the measurement keeps failing.

Plan limit banners ​

When your account reaches a limit of your hosting plan, the dashboard shows a banner that names the limit and asks you to contact your hosting provider, for example "You have reached the allowable number of Addon Domains for your hosting plan." Since panel 1.9.1 the limit messages say your hosting plan rather than the name of the plan, and so do the messages on the forms that refuse a new database or FTP account at the limit.

For disk space, the dashboard shows one of two banners, never both:

  • The Disk Usage banner, "You have reached the allowable Disk Usage limit for your hosting plan.", when your files alone are past the plan's disk space.
  • The files-and-databases banner, "Your files and databases together have used up the Disk Space allowance of your hosting plan.", when your files alone are within it but your files and databases together are past it.

Both are judged on the exact sizes, so a banner can appear while the rounded figure on the Disk Usage bar equals the limit.

Note: Bandwidth (This Month) shows the data transfer used during the current calendar month, not the lifetime total for your account. The counter resets to zero at the start of each month. Usage is reported in MB, matching the figures shown in the admin panel.

WhatsApp pairing ​

Clicking Connect in General Information expands a form that lets you pair your WhatsApp number with the panel's AI Assistant. After pairing, you can talk to the assistant directly from WhatsApp.

  • Session duration (optional) - choose how long the pairing stays valid: Never expire, 1 day, 7 days, 30 days.
  • Generate pairing code - produces the code you enter on WhatsApp to complete pairing.
  • Confirmation word for destructive operations - required to delete domains, emails or databases via the AI Assistant. The word is sent to the AI Agent Hub and is not stored in the panel.
  • Save - persists the confirmation word and session settings.

TIP

The AI Agent Hub is configured by your hosting provider in the admin panel (see Agents - AI Agent Hub). If the Connect button is missing or does nothing, the hub is not registered on this server - contact the administrator.
