<h3></h3>
<p>Version: 2026-04-02 — v0.9.2</p>
<ul>
<li>FIX: URLhaus (abuse.ch) integration now requires an API key (Auth-Key header); added URLhaus API Key field in Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Security scanning. Without a key the URLhaus check is skipped gracefully.</li>
<li>FIX: Scan modal failed to open with “i18n is not defined” JS error — resolved by declaring i18n from cfg.i18n inside initScanModal().</li>
<li>FIX: PDF security report printed blank — modal is now temporarily moved to document.body before window.print() and restored afterwards so @media print selectors work correctly.</li>
<li>FIX: “Scanning…” text rendered as garbled bytes (double-encoded UTF-8) — replaced with an animated indeterminate progress bar.</li>
<li>IMPROVE: Scan badge button removed from card header; scan result (shield icon + date + status label) now appears as an inline row inside the card metadata block, consistent with the rest of the card layout.</li>

<li>IMPROVE: Top toolbar now shows a compact API keys notice with direct links to Google Cloud Console and abuse.ch, replacing the old generic description block.</li>

LMN Site Monitor

A lightweight WordPress uptime and SSL monitoring plugin with email alerts, latency tracking, and dashboard widget.

Jon Otaegi

<p>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>.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>You can find more information about the <a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/architecture/patterns/health-endpoint-monitoring" rel="nofollow ugc">Health Endpoint Monitoring Pattern</a> at the <a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/architecture/patterns/" rel="nofollow ugc">Microsoft Azure Documentation</a> website.</p>
<h4>Development</h4>
<p>This plugin is being developed on <a href="https://github.com/jonotaegi/wordpress-health-endpoint" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub</a>. If you want to collaborate, feel free to submit pull requests or report bugs on the issue tracker.</p>
