Managing Sites

Sites are the core resource in WPGrip. Each site represents a WordPress installation that WPGrip manages over SSH.

Adding a Site

See the Adding a Site guide for a detailed walkthrough.

Site Overview

The site overview page shows:

  • Connection status — whether WPGrip can reach the site via SSH
  • WordPress version — with update badge if a newer version is available
  • PHP version — the server’s PHP version
  • Site screenshot — automatically captured weekly
  • Quick actions — sync, take screenshot, open site

Syncing

WPGrip syncs your site data automatically once per day. You can also trigger a manual sync from the site overview.

A sync pulls:

  • WordPress core version
  • All installed plugins and their versions
  • All installed themes and their versions
  • WordPress configuration details

Production vs. Staging

When adding a site, you can mark it as Production or Staging. Staging sites:

  • Are visually distinguished in the dashboard
  • Can be excluded from monitoring alerts
  • Don’t count toward performance testing quotas

Removing a Site

Go to the site’s overview page and click Delete. This removes the site from WPGrip only — nothing is changed on your actual server.

TIP

Deleting a site also removes its monitoring history, backups stored in WPGrip, and deployment logs.

All your WordPress sites. One powerful control panel.
