Ubuntu 20.04: wo stack install --web (PHP 7.4 as default)

groot

I've been testing WordOps on Ubuntu 20.04 and it works flawlessly.

I usually install the web stack: wo stack install --web
This install PHP 7.3 by default on Ubuntu 20.04 which comes with PHP 7.4. Of course, I can remove PHP 7.3 from the wo stack and then install PHP 7.4. This worked without any issues in my testing.

It did get me wondering if there is a way to change the defaults for the web stack command itself?

I guess I can just manually install my preferred stack.

groot I use this command for the stack installation as per my requirement: wo stack install --nginx --fail2ban --php74 --mysql --sendmail --ngxblocker --ufw

nsgoyat That would be manual route. I suppose it is more or less the same thing. How is your experience with ngxblocker?

marty That sets the defaults for new website. I'm inquiring about the web stack installation itself on Ubuntu 20.04. I suspect there may not be a way to change the web stack under --web.

You can edit /etc/wo/wo.conf to define your default php version.

groot ngxblocker works fine for me. Blocks a lot of spambots, stops WordPress setup guessing websites, and should be saving some bandwidth/resources as well.
