1.0.8 | May 22, 2026
- ✨ NewSite Health Monitor (Free) — When WordPress runs its Site Health checks, we now note important changes in your activity log: a new problem showing up, a problem clearing up, or the seriousness level shifting. You can turn this on or off under Settings > Event Tracking.
- ✨ NewSecurity Alerts (Premium) — Under Core & Plugin Alerts, you can choose to get an email when WordPress flags a critical Site Health issue (the same kind of serious warning you see on the Site Health screen). Other Site Health changes stay in the log only; only critical issues can trigger mail when you enable this option.
