DreamHost panel Home page overview

Overview

The DreamHost panel Home page is the dashboard you land on when you log in to your DreamHost panel. It gathers current offers, account and site activity, and an at-a-glance view of your websites in one place.

How do you open the Home page?

The Home page opens automatically when you log in to your DreamHost panel. You can also open it anytime by:

  • Clicking the Home button in the left menu.
  • Visiting the Home page link directly.

What sections appear on the Home page?

The Home page displays the following sections.

What does the Available Offers section show?

The Available Offers section displays current DreamHost offers and promotions available for your account.

What does the Stay Informed section show?

The Stay Informed section helps you stay aware of your site's status and account activity. You can switch between:

  • Alerts — View messages about your products and services.
  • Updates — Lists the latest DreamHost announcements, new features, and blog posts with company news and highlights.
  • Support — Review your previous interactions with the DreamHost Support team. Click any message to open it on the Support History page.

What does the Your Sites at a Glance section show?

The Your Sites at a Glance section displays up to eight of your websites. To change which sites are shown, click Edit List to add or remove sites as needed. Each site section displays:

  • Site name and plan type

    • Green checkmark — No issues detected, your site is functioning normally.
    • Orange icon — Action is needed.
    • Red icon — A critical issue is affecting the site.

      If your site shows an orange or red status, click Manage. This opens the Manage Websites dashboard tab for that domain, where you can view details about the detected issue and then take action.

  • Quick links — Opens the DNS, WordPress, File Manager, and the Manage Email pages. Click the respective icon to open each page.
  • Manage button — Opens the full management options within the Manage Websites page.
  • Three-dot menu () — Opens shortcuts to additional management options.

Use the arrows on each domain section to view different data panels, including:
