How do I create a WordPress site on Faaaster?
From the Projects list, click New site: a step-by-step flow asks you for the site settings, the hosting plan, then a confirmation. The site is provisioned within a few minutes.
The number of steps varies: three at minimum — a Billing step is inserted before the validation when your billing information is incomplete and the plan is paid, or when you belong to several organizations; the Buy a domain name button also adds a step.

Step 1 — Website parameters
- Click New site from the Projects list.
- Enter the Website name.
- Choose the Website language — Français or English. This is the language WordPress is installed in.
- The Temporary domain name is suggested automatically from the site name, ending in
.faaaster.dev. You can change it. - Click Continue.
By default, the site is created from the Empty WordPress Site blueprint — an empty WordPress installation. The Change template button only appears if your organization already has its own blueprints: it then lets you choose another one.
The temporary domain isn't permanent. You can connect a custom domain at any time after creation. The Buy a domain name button also lets you purchase one right away.
Step 2 — Hosting plan
Four plans are offered: Dev, Perso, Pro and Business. Click Select under the one that suits you — under Dev, the button reads Create a development site. Billing is set to Yearly by default.
The Dev plan is free for 30 days, with one trial per account: otherwise, its card shows No more free spots. A Dev site stays private ("Private site — public publishing not included").
Billing step — when it appears
The Billing step asks for the Billing Account (the owner of the subscription) and the Billing Informations — first name, last name, email, phone, company, address, postal code, city, country and region.
It appears if you belong to several organizations (to choose the one that will hold the site), or if the plan is paid and your organization's billing information is incomplete.
Last step — Validation
The screen summarizes the site, the chosen plan and the cart. If there's nothing to pay, click Validate to start the creation; with a paid plan, enter your payment method, then click Subscribe. The Back button lets you go back.
While the site starts up
The site appears immediately in your projects with the status Starting up…, and the message "Your website is loading, it will be ready within a few minutes!".
During this time, the site's actions are disabled: this is normal, the infrastructure is still being prepared. Once ready, the status changes to Online. As long as it's on its temporary .faaaster.dev address, the site stays in private mode: you access it through its Preview and collaboration link.
