I want to allow content creators access to admin page and let them create and edit blog posts. This as far as I know is currently only possible if Lektor is running in development mode - then one can open admin end edit in CMS.
Is there any way someone can manage blog without running their own instance?
what you are asking for defies the purpose of a static site generator. Lektor explicitly generates static content so that you do not have to host a CMS.
That being said, you can host the development mode on your server to allow editing. Though I am not sure what the limits are, especially on concurrent use. And you want to add an authentication layer to prevent unauthorized users from editing your website.
TLDR: no, you can not. You have to run a dev server instance.

In Laravel Forge there's an option called Website Isolation, which some people also seem to mention as user isolation as well. I am not quite sure what it does and possible benefit for such functionality. It would be great if someone can explain this!
It also means you can assign different users to different sites on your server. You can give them SSH and SFTP access to a specific site without allowing them access to other sites on the same server. It also can prevent malicious code in one site from affecting another site on the same server if these sites have different users.
See https://blog.laravel.com/forge-user-isolation
I found out that one of the biggest advantages for using Website / User Isolation is that Laravel Forge will be then able to offer unique and independent nginx environment compared to other sites exist in the same server. Thus, in situations where it requires restarting an nginx or overloading, other sites in the server should work perfectly fine.
I am new to web development but I have some experience in VB.Net desktop app programming. The software I am currently maintaining is only accessible within the company office network. Now that the management demanded the software to be accessible online, I have no choice but to convert it as a web-based system.
I had already started developing the software using laravel framework and so far so good. I successfully created the login form, few pages with CRUD implementation.
However, I came to a confusing part of development stage where I want to prevent some type of users from editing/adding/deleting records. Basically, there are two type of users I'm using which are Administrator and Normal User.
I already made many sections and pages, and I'm thinking of creating a duplicate version of these pages and folders for normal users only. This way I can remove some of the edit/delete/etc from the pages that are not needed for the user. But I'm still in dilemma because if I create duplicates for these pages, it would be tiresome to make changes in future when maintaining it.
So, what do you guys think? should I make a modified copy of the pages or just use the same pages for all users and disable some features based on user type?

Does anyone know how to access Cpanel on 1&1(IONOS). One of the biggest in the web hosting market but I didn't know it was one of the worst. Knowledge Base is empty. Searching on Google doesn't result in anything.
I am startled by the fact that I found NO INFORMATION online. Absolutely NO information on google. How could it be possible? No one has ever tried to ask this question before?!?!? BTW IONOS is the worst web host. If someone has to search for 20 mins to access even cpanel, then it's the worst web host.
IONOS Screenshot
Note the below is only available if you have the right build assigned to your account.
Server administration with Plesk is conveniently done right in your browser.
Since Plesk provides its own HTTPS service for this, a web server (e.g. Apache)
does not need to be running on the server.
Open your web browser and enter your domain name (or IP address)
followed by :8443 in the address bar.
Log in with the user name Admin and your initial password.
You can log in to IONOS and find your initial password in the Server Access Data section.
I am sure by now you managed to fix your problem. But I figured I must just post how I accessed it for other people. I am assuming that you wanted to remove some of the files on your website (i.e. if a WordPress plugin destroyed your site). The way I accessed my files is as follows: Firstly go to your Ionos dashboard. Then click on the contract you are using (i.e. WP Business). Thereafter go to hosting and click manage, then a page will open and click webspace. Once you click webspace you will be able to access all of your files.
I hope this helps someone out because truly getting information about Ionos seems like thesis research.
I nearly fell for their $6-for-the-first-year Business Plan account. Whups! Good thing I asked some questions first.
The sales person answered the chat after approx 20 mins, and was not customer friendly. When I enquired about included CPanel apps, I was abruptly told that CPanel is not included - you must purchase it separately. She did not tell me (this is what I mean by "abrupt"), but I read elsewhere, that they wrote their own "CPanel-like" administration tool - but from what I can tell it is significantly less capable. And as of this writing, I still do not know if they offer Node.js (which was something that I asked the sales rep but she did not answer).
I would be interested to see a screenshot of the IONOS CPanel replacement. I also would like to know what included apps they offer, such as phpBB, SimpleMachinesForum, Node.js, Python, Ruby - and how Git management/deployment works. As of this writing, and over 30 minutes on chat with them (including wait time), I have no idea.
Here is a fairly recently article from Dec 2021 that sheds more light:
https://websitesetup.org/hosting-reviews/ionos/
You can access your Cpanel using below URL,
http://IP:2082
Note: In IP you have to set your Cpanel IP.
above link redirect to login page, In login page you need to enter your username and password,
From the look of your screenshot it looks as if the package you have purchased is not one that contains a server. Here are two options for packages with servers.
Cloud
Dedicated

Go to Servers & Cloud -> Infrastructure -> Servers and select the server you want to access.
Then, go to either the Plesk or cPanel section, there you'll find user, password and host for your server.
So I've been tasked to develop some enterprise web applications, but our users hate logging in to every site. After our users authenticate to eDirectory, is it possible to provide a Single Sign On feature for them. I know it's possible to do with AD, but I was wondering if anyone has actually done it with Novell?
Currently, I'm testing out solutions on WAMP (Apache 2.2). I was looking into mod_auth_sspi but I'm not sure if it will work with Novell.
The typical issue on these setups is how you are going to pass credentials from the Browser to the Web Application. You can setup Kerberos on eDirectory which should work similar to Microsoft Active Directory using GSSAPI which is vendor independent.
You may need to make some changes to browser settings to make any of these work seamlessly.
However, SPPI is a proprietary variant of GSSAPI with extensions and very Windows-specific data types and AFIK, will not work easily with eDirectory or browsers other than IE.
If possible, look into a Access Manager product that will be (at least nearly) seamless. Most will allow any(?) WEB based application to utilize SSO in one form or another.

I'm an enthusiast on web-technology. I want to know where does the code of a website resides? Is it hosting in all possible cases? Do usually people give access code to source code from admin panel? What if I want such functionality in my site? Will it be secure enough?
The site's code lives on your web server. The security depends on the web server itself.
It highly depends on the features of your hosting environment. If they provide ssh or ftp access, then yes, you can most likely access and modify the source code of your sites. Otherwise you are at the mercy of the control panel(s) of the hosting or the admin area of your particular website.
