Creating A Staging Enviroment

To create a new staging enviroment, go to the Websites screen inside your Dashboard.

Now that your Rocket.net account is connected, you’ll see a new button on this screen.

Clicking on “Create Site” will open a pop-up to create a staging enviroment on Rocket.net.

First you need to name it, this will be the name of it inside your Dashboard and the label inside your Rocket.net Dashboard.

You need to choose a location of where you want this staging enviroment to be hosted.

Next we need to set the username, password and email of the account admin of the WordPress website (the username and password are automatically filled with your Dashboard credentials)

And finally, you have two choices when it comes to adding this website to your Atarim Dashboard.

Adding New Staging Sites Via URL

Let’s create a site and choose the first option.

You’ll see a confirmation pop-up once the website has been created.

Note: Staging enviroments can take a second to be created, if you click a button and it seems that something is wrong, please try again after waiting for a second

Clicking on “Manage Site” will bring up the Rocket.net settings for this new staging environment.

Clicking on “Collaborate” will take you to the visual collaboration for this new staging enviroment (learn more about collaborating via URL here)

Adding New Staging Site Via Plugin

To automatically install the Atarim Plugin, you can toggle this on the site creation pop-up here.

After creating the site, you’ll see a confirmation pop-up that it was successful.

Note: Please keep in mind that it can take a second for this site to be created on Rocket.net’s side.

To add this new website to your Agency Dashboard, you need to activate the plugin.

Clicking on “Activate Plugin” will take you to the WordPress Admin login for this new site, type in the account you setup on the create site pop-up. You’ll then be taken to the first step of the Atarim Activation Wizard.

By clicking on “I already have an account (Login)”, we’ll automatically log you in from your Agency Dashboard and start the activiation process.

We’ll make sure it’s you, and then click Activate on this screen.

Which will then bring you to the next step on the installation wizard.

After the install has been completed, you’ll see the new website on your Agency Dashboard.

Managing Rocket.net Hosting Settings On Websites

By having a website on both Rocket.net and your Atarim Agency Dashboard, this will give you access to the hosting settings inside your Websites screen.

Note: This is based off of matching URL’s that are on both platforms

By clicking Manage Site, the Rocket.net settings for this website will appear in a pop-up.

This integration empowers your agency by creating an all-in-one solution for your visual collaborating and hosting. It doesn’t matter which Dashboard you are in, you have full control over everything you need!

FAQs

What happens if the staging site isn’t created?

Wait a few seconds and retry. Rocket.net may take a moment to respond.

Will I need to re-authenticate Rocket.net often?

No, once authenticated, the connection remains until manually disconnected.

Can I connect multiple Rocket.net accounts to Atarim?

Currently, Atarim only supports one Rocket.net account connection per workspace. If you manage multiple Rocket.net accounts, consider using separate Atarim workspaces for each.

What if I accidentally disconnect my Rocket.net integration?

You can reconnect at any time by following the same steps under Settings → Integrations. All previously created sites remain intact.

Can I delete a Rocket.net site from the Atarim Dashboard?

Deleting a site in Atarim will remove it from your visual dashboard, but you will need to delete it separately from your Rocket.net account to fully remove the hosting instance.
