Windows Hosting - Why can't I install Click & Build applications?
Our Click & Build offer is based on Linux and is therefore only available in the Linux contracts. If you would like to use Click & Build, you can switch to a corresponding contract.
Please note: When switching from Windows to Linux, all data in your contract will be lost. It is your own responsibility to create a data backup before switching. This includes, for example, databases, page content, etc.
Can I secure my Click & Build website using SSL?
Yes, it does not matter whether you have created your website using the Click & Build application or by other means. To find out how to set up an SSL certificate for use with your website, see Setting up an SSL certificate managed by IONOS .
I can't find the domain I want to link my website to?
- Make sure that the desired domain is in the same contract as the app. If the desired domain is in a different contract, move it via internal domain transfer. The procedure is described in the articles Transferring a domain to another IONOS contract (same customer number) and Transferring a domain to another IONOS contract (different customer numbers).
- After a new registration or a domain transfer, it can take up to 48 hours for the domain to become visible.
Who can I contact if I have legal questions?
If you have any legal questions, please contact the developer of the respective application or a lawyer. Links to the developers' websites can be found in the Click & Build overview in your IONOS account and in the article Click & Build: Overview of Applications.
