This plugin will perform a number of checks on your WordPress installation to detect common configuration errors and known issues, and also allows plugins and themes to add their own checks.
The debug section, which allows you to gather information about your WordPress and server configuration that you may easily share with support representatives for themes, plugins or on the official WordPress.org support forums.
Troubleshooting allows you to have a clean WordPress session, where all plugins are disabled, and a default theme is used, but only for your user until you disable it or log out.
The Tools section allows you to check that WordPress files have not been tampered with, that emails can be sent, and if your plugins are compatible with any PHP version updates in the future.

This simple plugin creates a <code>/health</code> endpoint to let you monitor the status of your WordPress website. The endpoint tests the status of your database connection and returns a <code>200 OK</code> HTTP status code while your page is healthy. You can read more on HTTP status codes at the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes" rel="nofollow ugc">Wikipedia article</a>.
External tools such as website monitoring services can access the exposed endpoint at regular intervals. This can help you verify that your WordPress website is performing correctly.
