Creating Your First Site
When you first access Pala from a domain, you’ll be prompted to create a site for that hostname. The site is automatically tied to the domain you accessed it from.Creating Additional Sites
To create additional sites, you need to connect them to new domain names:1
Connect a new domain to your server
Point your domain’s DNS records to your Pala server, or configure your hosting provider to route traffic to the server.
2
Access the server from the new domain
Visit your new domain in a web browser (e.g.,
https://newsite.com).3
Sign in and create the site
You’ll be shown the site creation screen. Complete the setup and your site will be automatically connected to the domain.
Each site is tied to a specific hostname/domain. You cannot have multiple sites on the same domain.
Site Groups
Site Groups help you organize multiple sites into folders. They’re purely organizational - they don’t affect how sites function.Common Use Cases
- Client Organization: Group sites by client (e.g., “Client A Sites”, “Client B Sites”)
- Project Type: Organize by type (e.g., “Blogs”, “Portfolios”, “E-commerce”)
- Work Status: Separate sites by stage (e.g., “In Development”, “Live Sites”, “Personal Projects”)
