Eeeek, new apache build process in WHM.. cumbersome

[t9clkclnr]

the new process in the apache build is extremely cumbersome, and not user friendly.

It's now a multiple step, clicking process, versus everything laid out on one page.
Anyone else feel this way?

I just upgraded to apache 2.0 un-beknownst to me. Which I'm sure will provide many support questions for me, for anything that is not compatible. Joy.
I'm afraid it's also upgrading the PHP 5. which I was not wanting just yet.

This change is not cool.

This change has been very well documented and has multiple due to the complexity of the new system (you can choose apache ver, multiple php versions running at same time, etc).
I apologize that you feel it is cumbersome however we have had very good feedback on this. If you have any constructive criticism however I would love to hear it.

One thing I've enjoyed over the years with cpanel has been the ease of understanding of WHM without having to re-read the documentation each and every release.

My request would be to make the buttons in WHM and the verbiage a little more concise for the user.
current verbiage in WHM, is not clear cut for this new process anyway.

Thank you again for your continue support and development efforts.

We do appreciate the feedback, thanks. This is unlikley to change because it was specifically designed and tweaked based on EDGE user input and other circumstances.

In time you'll likley find you actually prefer the new work flow.

Thanks, do you have some specific examples of what verbiage could be imporved on?

I can't seem to find the documentation on the new layout for the apache build proicess

All of the documentation is available from the WHM Upgrade Apache section. It is all very straight forward.

this is the only update apache documentation I see. I'm sorry, do you have an exact link?

I think Billy is saying that the Update Apache UI is self documenting and is broken up into logic chunks so it s easy to follow.
