Email Reports

Email Reports is a WP PowerSuite Pro module that emails a branded site digest on a schedule — login security, 404s, activity, and email delivery stats — so stakeholders stay informed without logging into wp-admin every day.

No extra single-purpose reporting plugin. Enable it from the Modules hub when a client wants a recurring pulse; leave it off when they do not. Product overview: Email Reports.

Why teams choose it

Busy site owners miss silent problems: brute-force spikes, rising 404 noise, unusual admin activity, or a wave of failed mail. Email Reports packages those signals into one digest:

• Daily, weekly, or monthly delivery on your schedule
• Sections powered by sibling WP PowerSuite modules you already use
• Branded layout with logo, color, company name, and footer
• Admin or custom recipient lists (up to 20 addresses)
• Send Test and Send Now when you need an immediate report

Everything stays inside WP PowerSuite — one license, modular sections, enable only what you need.

Keep clients informed without another reporting plugin

Email Reports is included with WP PowerSuite Pro. Pair it with Email Logs and security modules for richer digests.

Who it is for

• Agencies sending weekly status digests to clients
• Store owners watching login security and mail delivery trends
• Ops teams that want 404 and activity snapshots by email
• Freelancers standardizing reporting across maintenance retainers
• Site owners who prefer inbox summaries over daily dashboard checks

What you can do

Configure Email Reports from the PowerSuite Advanced Settings modal for the module (deep link: admin.php?page=powersuite&wpps_module=email-reports). Tabs: Schedule · Report · Branding.

Schedule

• Send scheduled email reports — master enable
• Frequency: daily, weekly, or monthly (default weekly)
• Weekly: day of week (Sunday–Saturday; default Monday)
• Monthly: day of month 1–28
• Time in the site timezone (default 09:00)
• Custom subject with placeholders: %1$s company, %2$s start date, %3$s end date
  Blank uses: %1$s – Site Report (%2$s to %3$s)

Recipients

• Site admin email, or custom list (one address per line, max 20)

Report sections

Section	Title in email	Depends on module
limit-login-attempts	Login Security	Limit Login Attempts
track-404s	404 Errors	Track 404s
activity-log	Activity Log	Advanced User Activity Log
email-logs	Email Delivery	Email Logs

Unavailable sections show (module disabled). If you leave the selection empty, all available sections are included.

The Email Delivery section summarizes Sent, Delivered, Failed, Bounced, plus recent emails when Email Logs has data.

Branding

• Company name
• Logo from the media library
• Primary color (default #2271b1)
• Footer text (HTML or plain)

Send Test / Send Now

• Send Test — subject prefixed with [Test]; rate limit about 1 per minute
• Send Now — bypasses the schedule enable flag (with confirmation); rate limit about 5 minutes
  Both use saved recipients, sections, and branding

Why WP PowerSuite instead of a standalone digest plugin

Standalone report plugins often duplicate data you already collect elsewhere. Email Reports reuses sibling modules — Limit Login Attempts, Track 404s, Activity Log, Email Logs — so the digest reflects the same suite you already licensed. Enable Email Reports for retainer clients; disable it when a site does not need scheduled mail.

When to enable it

Turn it on when you want to:

• Email a weekly or monthly pulse to clients or stakeholders
• Surface login security, 404, activity, or mail-delivery trends automatically
• Brand digests with agency or client identity
• Trigger an on-demand report with Send Now during incidents

When to leave it off

Caution

Leave Email Reports inactive if:

• You do not yet have WP PowerSuite Pro installed and licensed (install Pro beside the free plugin, then activate under WP PowerSuite → License)
• No sibling modules are enabled — digests will have little or no section content
• Stakeholders already receive equivalent monitoring from another system

How to get started

1. Activate your WP PowerSuite license.
2. Enable the sibling modules you want in the digest (for example Email Logs, Track 404s, Limit Login Attempts, Activity Log).
3. Go to WP PowerSuite → Modules and enable Email Reports.
4. Open module settings (wpps_module=email-reports).
5. On Schedule, choose frequency, day, time, subject, and recipients.
6. On Report, select sections that are available.
7. On Branding, set company name, logo, color, and footer.
8. Click Send Test, then enable scheduled sending when ready.

How to verify it works

• Click Send Test with your address as a recipient.
  ✅ A [Test] subject arrives with branding and available sections.
• Enable weekly schedule and note the next run time in site timezone.
  ✅ Cron hooks are registered for the chosen frequency.
• Disable a sibling module used by a section.
  ✅ That section shows as unavailable / is omitted from content.
• Click Send Now after changing branding.
  ✅ Immediate digest reflects the new logo and color.

If something fails, confirm the license is active, WP-Cron is running, and Email Delivery (or host mail) can send to the recipients.

Recommended settings

• Agencies: weekly, Monday 09:00, custom recipients (account manager + client).
• High-security sites: include Login Security and Activity Log; keep Email Logs on for the delivery section.
• Stores: include Email Delivery stats and ensure Email Logs retention covers the report window.
• Keep subject placeholders so date ranges stay accurate across schedules.

Sections need sibling modules

Email Reports does not invent data. Enable Limit Login Attempts, Track 404s, Advanced User Activity Log, and/or Email Logs for meaningful sections.

Troubleshooting

• Activate license notice. Open WP PowerSuite → License, activate, then reopen settings. Get a license if you are evaluating the suite.
• Empty or thin digest. Enable the sibling modules for the sections you selected.
• Test email not arriving. Confirm recipients, site mail transport (Email Delivery recommended), and spam folders. Watch the Send Test rate limit (~1/min).
• Schedule never fires. Verify WP-Cron (or a real system cron hitting wp-cron.php) and that Send scheduled email reports is enabled.
• Send Now blocked. Wait out the ~5 minute rate limit, then retry.
• Wrong send time. Times use the site timezone under Settings → General.

Manage with WP-CLI

Prefer the command line? You can turn this module on or off with WP-CLI instead of the dashboard:

# Turn the module on
wp powersuite module enable email-reports

# Turn the module off
wp powersuite module disable email-reports

# Check whether it is on, its category, and where its settings live
wp powersuite module get email-reports

Managing more than one site? Add --url=https://example.com to point a command at one site. If this is a Pro module, install WP PowerSuite Pro and activate your license first. New to WP-CLI? See the full command guide.
