## Change user plan

Please visit [this page](/docs/admin/plans/change-plan-for-user)

## Modify plan

To change plan limits click on the edit button for the plan and set the new limits.

The new limits will be applied to new accounts only. To apply the limits to all users on the same plan automatically you can use the `apply limits` script.

When changing the limits for a plan, to apply them to existing users:
- Domains, Websites, and Databases limits will automatically increase.
- CPU and RAM limits require the docker container to be rebuilt.
- Disk space **CAN NOT BE CHANGED**, inodes **CAN NOT LONGER BE SET**.
- Bandwidth (port speed) limits require a manual intervention.
