Hello guys
I decided after many years to move to lite speed (i am new with litespeed).
Starting this journey:
I deploy for one of my clients WordPress with open lite speed:
https://docs.litespeedtech.com/cloud/images/wordpress/
It's much wider and complex from these docs and have the openlitespeed panel himself to optimize.
I am a cPanel user, and my goal was getting rid of the server panel, and use only WordPress server.
I see now it's a little bit more complex if you want to use this deployment on the Google cloud.
(you can still use the WordPress but, have security issues and much more configuration need to be done on the openlitespeed panel)
Really. I don't know from where to start, i have so many questions.
I will try from the hard to the easy:
1. phpmyadmin and openlitespeed admin panel needs ssl secure. (not secure, how i secure them? My website is secure and i generate the SSL + force it)
But phpmyadmin accessible in HTTP :/ (YOU HAVE SSL ON HIM IF YOU GO IN HTTPS BUT ITS NOT FORCED)
Openlitespeed admin panel is much worse and i must close the port 7080 and open it to throw SSH any time.
If i was able to secure both of them with SSL, it's be much better and secure

2. virtual host show “example” and i notice in one of your videos on YouTube you delete the “example” so i got confused maybe this thing needs to be deleted if you deploy the openlitespeed throw GCP:
SCREENSHOT OF THE “EXAMPLE” VIRTUAL HOST I THINK NEED TO BE DELETED (ACCORDING TO YOUR YOUTUBE):

3. OCSP Stapling and different cipher key for better SSL score:
I notice in one of the articles you provide some tips for people want ecdh key:
https://docs.litespeedtech.com/cloud/images/wordpress/
I see an option for OCSP stapling in the openlitespeed panel (can turn it on in a click button).
But i still afraid, be better ask here maybe someone can help.
Maybe
provide a YouTube video for this issue?
The SSL score of the default deployment is very bad:

4. Emails from the openlitespeed admin panel?
So one thing very confused me,
It is the email from the openlitespeed admin panel.
The deployment instructions (docs) not mention the litespeed admin panel alerts.
(you show how to do emails only to the WordPress website)
but from my knowledge of other webadmin panels, they send alerts and much more.
Another important things:
Google cloud block port 25 by default (and in the deployment you didn't open it for the client)
so i got very confused.
openlitespeed panel not sending alerts to your emails?
And if the admin panel acutely sending alerts, how can i set up an email alerts on Google Cloud after they block by default port 25?
---------
5. server name:
I notice to option change it in the openlitespeed admin panel but i not was sure...
I know on Google Cloud need to create a script (DHCP Script)
to do stuff like this. (if someone knows the right way, i will be glad to hear it):

---------
I know it a lot... (and i have much more question but i don't want to make it too much)
Be happy for help and i sure it will help to others
