You can now add tags to your sites

Some of our users have a lot of sites in their Oh Dear account. A feature often requested is the ability to add a little bit of meta information about each site. To do that, we've introduced the ability to add tags to a site. Tags can be used for instance how important it is to fix a problem with the site immediately. Possible tags could be important or has support contract. Another use case would be to add the technology used, tags could be named wordpress, laravel, js.

Status pages can now be displayed in multiple languages

In addition to performing various checks to monitor your site, Oh Dear also offers beautiful status pages. Status pages can now use multiple languages. Using these status pages, you can inform your audience about the status of your service. Here's the beautiful Oh Dear powered status page of the Laravel team. Some of our users have a global, multi-lingual audience. That's why we now added support for a status page to be displayed in multiple languages.

Our API tokens can now be scoped by site or status page

Oh Dear has an extensive API that powers various powerful integrations. To use the API, you first need to create an API Token in the Oh Dear UI. Previously, such a token could be used to make API calls to any site or status page in your Oh Dear account. We noticed that some of our users are agencies that use Oh Dear to monitor their clients' sites.
