TraceWise Status & Monitoring
One plugin for live public status and monitor management. Show status to visitors, and manage monitors from WordPress. TraceWise performs the uptime checks remotely.
- Monitor WordPress sites and other services. TraceWise runs the checks from outside WordPress.
- Manage TraceWise monitors from the WordPress admin, including add, edit, and delete.
- Display live public status to visitors with five Gutenberg blocks and five matching shortcodes.
- Use more than one public status page. Each block or shortcode can name its own page, within your TraceWise plan.
- Public widgets do not need an API key. Connect a key only when you want to manage monitors.
- Download the plugin before you create an account. Install it, then connect TraceWise when you are ready.
- A WordPress Dashboard widget shows monitor health and open incidents to administrators.
Public status widgets
These are the status views the plugin can place on a WordPress page. They read a published TraceWise status page. This preview uses the public demo page.

A linked card with the service name, status, and optional 24-hour uptime.
A daily availability bar for the last 7, 30, or 90 days.

Demonstration data for the public demo slug. These are not production incidents.
Incident rows on the demo page are demonstration data, not a customer incident.
Monitoring from WordPress
Connect an API key and administrators can open TraceWise → Overview, Monitors, and Connection. Creating, editing, and deleting need monitors:write. Check now needs checks:run. TraceWise still enforces your plan and performs every check.
Monitor management
- See overall health and open incidents from Overview.
- Add, edit, and delete monitors when the API key includes monitors:write.
- Run a check from WordPress when the key includes checks:run. TraceWise performs that check.
- Keep a Dashboard widget for administrators on the same cached monitor view.
