First-run experience
A fresh install will not run any checks until you tell it to. This is intentional — the plugin avoids putting load on a brand-new site until you opt in. The dashboard shows a welcome state with a single call to action.
Triggering a scan
- Go to Mission Control → Dashboard.
- Click Run Health Check.
- Wait for the scan to finish — the cards fill in as each check class completes.
What gets scheduled
The first manual run schedules a daily WP-Cron event called wprobo_mc_daily_health_check. From that point on, the plugin re-runs all 7 check classes once every 24 hours in the background and updates the cached results. The dashboard always shows the latest cached run plus a “last cron run X ago” timestamp.
Reading the results
Each sub-check appears as a colour-coded card:
- Green — passing.
- Amber — warning. Worth reviewing but not urgent.
- Red — failing. Click the card to see the affected items and how to fix it.
Above the cards you will see your overall health score, calculated as the percentage of checks currently passing.
