A fully functional virtual command line, no SSH client needed. Run WP-CLI commands, inspect your database, and manage your Express site without ever leaving the dashboard.
A command line without the setup headache
Managing a WordPress site at the server level has always meant juggling SSH clients, credentials, and terminal windows outside your workflow. With the new Express Console, that friction is gone. You can now open a fully functional virtual terminal directly from within the Convesio dashboard, no external tools, no extra configuration.
Head to Settings → SFTP & SSH Access for any Express site and you’ll find the new Virtual Console button sitting right alongside your SFTP credentials. One click and you’re in.
Full WP-CLI access, database checks, and more
The console gives you real shell access to your Express site environment. Run WP-CLI commands, check database integrity, list posts, manage plugins, or inspect your file system, all from a clean, browser-based terminal window.
The example above shows a live wp post list --post_type=page command returning a full table of published pages, exactly the kind of quick inspection that used to require a separate SSH session.
