Doesn’t always work, Doesn’t add anything to Updraft Plus

I thought this would be a central dashboard that would let me see things like the last time each Updraft Plus installation ran a backup, whether there were any errors, how many backups are stored in each, and let me configure each installation from a central dashboard.

It’s not. Updraft Central only lists the websites where Updraft Plus is installed, and provides links back to those websites for configuring each. There are no stats on which ones ran and which ones didn’t. I have to visit each installation for that.

I set this plugin up and connected it to a handful of websites before the end of the year. I had some difficulty getting it to connect to a couple of websites, but ultimately got the connection to work. After the end of the year holidays, I revisited the Updraft Central dashboard and found that none of the sites would connect to the Updraft Central dashboard. I got errors trying to access the dashboard of each website.

I don’t want to troubleshoot the dashboard installation every time I use it. That wastes more time than having it, saves.
