supportHi everyone, I would like to give you a short status update on the plugin development. Since the first version of the plugin there have been quite some feature requests that I tried to implement as good and quick as possible. Besided that Uptime Robot has launched a new version of their API with more possibilities (like three digits uptime). Due to these changes the coding of the plugin became a bit messy and inefficient. Because of that I decided to start developing a second version from scratch to solve these issues. Make the plugin future proof and make some changes. Current status: – Uptime status table options for hiding columns or table head. Or showing extra items like id/URL. – Settings can be enabled for multisite or seperate for single sites. – Caching API results by using a separate DB instead of transient options. – Monitors can be manually sorted with option to put offline monitors to the top of the list. – Better styling possibilities – More then 50 monitors possible – Duration of offline/online/paused status Planned: – Pause resume monitors – Response times chart on front end – Improving log with details and filters If you have any new requests, questions or ideas, please let me know. Regards, Niels
I found a few problems with plugin version 2.0. I can’t change refresh rate. Default is every 15 minutes, all other options are grayed out. Dashboard widget is missing. Why plugin name in admin menu is “Uptime Robot Pro”? This reply was modified 9 years, 8 months ago by seprita .
Hi, The name change in the admin was for me to be able to use both V1 and V2 at the same time and see the difference. I will revert this back in the next update. Regarding the refresh rate they are greyed out as a pro feature. In the next update it will be possible to select realtime though. Hope to push this out today. Regards, Niels
Thank You for the answer, but how about the missing dashboard widget?
With pleasure. The dashboard widgets are currently disabled because the output would be to big. I’m still thinking of a way I could put this back into action. I understand it would be easier to see it directly when you login without navigating to the plugin pages Everytime. I will do my best to added this asap. Regards, Niels
Yes, with dashboard widgets it’s much easier to see monitors status. Thank You for the good plugin, have a good coding and I will (and probably many others too) wait widgets comeback!
They are back 🙂
