UpdraftCentral Premium Cloud for WordPress Site Management

Manage connected sites from one dashboard

UpdraftCentral Premium Cloud is the hosted version of UpdraftCentral. Its dashboard is hosted and maintained for you, bringing routine administration for connected WordPress sites into one place. Review system information and updates across sites, or open a connected website's WordPress dashboard with one click when you need to work there.

Backup and update controls

Manage UpdraftPlus backups centrally: start a backup, view or edit backup settings, check available backups, download or delete backups, and initiate a restore. You can also manage UpdraftVault storage from the dashboard.

View WordPress core, add-on and theme updates across connected sites, then apply updates according to filters. Easy Updates Manager lets you control update policies. UpdraftCentral can also remotely control WP-Optimize for database cleanup.

Site administration tools

• Run Google Analytics for an instant overview of key performance indicators across sites.
• Manage comments across connected sites and manage visitors with various access levels.
• Create tags to organize websites into categories.
• Activate, deactivate or delete extensions on one or more sites.
• Install add-ons from the WordPress add-on directory and activate them automatically.
• Manage themes, pick and set a default theme, and install themes on one or more sites.

Interface and connection details

The dashboard is a dynamic, single-page JavaScript application that runs in the front end and full-screen mode, without frequent page refreshes. Where possible, communications are sent directly from the browser. Site connections are encrypted and signed using RSA, and each connection has a unique key pair. The interface is responsive and mobile-ready.

UpdraftCentral can also run on localhost, allowing its dashboard website to remain off the public Internet. It uses WordPress hooks widely and includes JavaScript documentation through JSDoc.

Connect sites and start managing them

For the hosted edition, access UpdraftCentral Premium Cloud. Install UpdraftPlus on each WordPress website you want to control, then connect those sites to the central dashboard. Once connected, review site information, backups and updates, and use the available administration tools from one location.
