WP Update Radar

radar · wordpress.org support-forum signal, not vibes

Update available. Will it break your site?

Pick the plugin and the exact version. We compare real incident threads on wordpress.org against that plugin’s normal noise level and give you a plain verdict — before you click Update on a site you’re responsible for.

verdict console · 1 plugin on the scope

Reading the scope

// four verdicts, one decision

On the scope

// top plugins by install count, re-scanned every 6h

How it works

// public data, deterministic verdict
  1. 01 · SWEEP

    Scan the forums

    Every 6 hours we index new support threads for the top WordPress plugins from wordpress.org: title, link, timestamp, and any version mentioned.

  2. 02 · ATTRIBUTE

    Pin reports to releases

    Threads naming the exact version are strong evidence. Undated complaints landing within 14 days of a release are weak evidence.

  3. 03 · BASELINE

    Compare to normal

    Every plugin has a normal noise level — we average its recent releases so a chatty forum doesn’t read as an incident.

  4. 04 · VERDICT

    One plain answer

    CLEAR, HOLD, WAIT, or NO SIGNAL — with every source thread linked so you can read the evidence yourself.

Free, and one honest add-on

// everything you can see today stays free

SCAN PASS

$5 one-time · 10 scans · 30 days

For the plugin we don’t track: a live scan of wordpress.org, on demand.

  • 10 on-demand scans of any wordpress.org plugin, valid 30 days — not a subscription
  • Each scan fetches the release history and support forum and computes the verdict on the spot
  • Scanned plugins join the free tracked set — your $5 grows the free tool for everyone
  • No account: pay via Paddle, get a private pass link. A failed scan never costs a credit

Your pass link is the only credential — keep it. Lost links are recoverable with the transaction id from your Paddle receipt: /pass/recover.

The scope never sleeps

// re-swept every 6 hours, verdicts recompute on every pass
