Build a website with Manus
A user had Manus build a website but could not access it outside the Manus sandbox, so they could not log in directly to change the backend.
- What They Did
- The poster says they used Manus to build a website, but the result was stuck inside the Manus environment: they could not access the site outside the sandbox, get zip exports, or log in directly to edit the backend. They also say that even after multiple rebuilds in the same project, Manus sometimes could not find files already in the project folder, and support had not resolved it.
- How It Went
- It did produce a website, but the source only describes failures after that: limited backend controls, no direct external access, and no usable export. No success metrics or completed workaround are given.
- Worth Knowing
- One commenter says they use Manus for web development multiple times a week but offload everything to GitHub as a safeguard.
Try it yourself with Manus
Build a website for [purpose, e.g. my portfolio, shop, or event] with these pages: [list pages]. Set it up so I can edit the content and backend myself, and deploy it to [hosting provider or a public URL] instead of leaving it only in your sandbox. Stop when I can open the live site and log in to the admin area, and give me the login steps and a list of the files and settings you used. Ask me before submitting any forms or entering payment details.
