Universal CMS Connector
The RankEasy Universal Connector is the lightweight path for Empire CMS, DedeCMS, custom PHP sites, OnePanel, BaoTa, and other self-hosted environments that do not expose modern publishing APIs.
Connector packages
- PHP connector for legacy CMS and custom PHP sites
- Node.js connector for modern self-hosted apps
- Docker connector for OnePanel and containerized servers
- CLI connector for enterprise private environments
Push and pull modes
Push mode lets RankEasy call a signed endpoint. Pull mode lets the customer server fetch publishing tasks without exposing an inbound endpoint.
Empire CMS and DedeCMS
RankEasy should not remotely write raw CMS database tables. The connector runs locally and calls the CMS local publishing logic, cache refresh, static generation, and sitemap update flow.
OnePanel role
OnePanel is a server panel, not a CMS. It is useful for deploying the connector, hosted blog runtime, Docker services, backups, and reverse proxy configuration.
