Self-hosting checklist

Before you invite the team to a self-hosted CRM-NG:

  • Email arrives, and the WordPress admin bar is not red (Email on your own server)
  • The private folder is not downloadable (Requirements)
  • A real cron job runs wp-cron.php every five minutes (Requirements)
  • Your backups include the database and wp-content, including the private folder
  • WordPress, CRM-NG and your other plugins are kept up to date
  • The encryption keys are in wp-config.php (setup wizard → Keys & secrets), so a stolen database backup alone cannot open them
