Depending on your server setup, there may be tests in the WordPress Site Health tool that are not relevant and will never pass. For example, you may have background updates disabled if your entire site is kept under version control.
This plugin adds a simple settings page to exclude those tests from the Site Health Status page.
Note: This should only be used to disable tests with a legitimate and acceptable reason for failing. It should not be used to hide tests which can be fixed.

Site Health Tool Manager

This plugin enables me to somewhat control the site Health, and having the luxury to not explain certain things to my customers...

Thanks.

Really Good !

If you manage a website for someone who maintains administrator privileges on the site, but would be bothered by failing tests in WordPress 5.2's new Site Health dashboard, this plugin is an excellent tool. 

Note: you should NOT use this plugin to ignore problems on the site like woefully out-of-date PHP or other critical security issues. Instead, you should resolve the root issue. 

But (for example) if your server/host is unable to update to PHP 7.3 (at the time of this review, that's the recommended version) but is running 7.2... it may be useful to remove that "recommendation" from the list of checks temporarily. 

Another plus in the plus-column: this plugin can even remove tests that are added by third-party code.  

Excellent plugin for developers and power users.

Thanks for making this plugin, essential tool so that clients do not get in panic!

Must-have tool for WP 5.2+ and clients... :-)

Easily control which tests appear in the the Site Health Tool
