System Summary At-a-glance site health, environment, updates, and storage on the dashboard-expand what you need.

At-a-glance site health, environment, updates, and storage on the dashboard-expand what you need.

  • Changes the WordPress dashboard home widgets or layout.
  • Includes settings so you can tune this module for your site.
  • Activate license.
  • Site Health.
  • WP PowerSuite.
  • Visible sections.

Enable it if:

  • You specifically need: At-a-glance site health, environment, updates, and storage on the dashboard-expand what you need.
  • You want this Site Tools feature without installing a separate plugin for it.

Options you can configure for this module include:

  • Activate license
  • Site Health
  • WP PowerSuite
  • Visible sections
  • Compact mode
  • Use compact layout (smaller text and spacing)
  • REST API available
  • REST API disabled
  1. Go to WP PowerSuite -> Modules.
  2. Open Site Tools or search for “System Summary”.
  3. Toggle System Summary on.
  4. Confirm WP PowerSuite Pro is installed and your license is active.
  5. Open the module settings and save.

Toggle it off anytime to stop this module from loading.

  • Confirm System Summary is enabled under WP PowerSuite -> Modules -> Site Tools.
  • Use the feature this module controls (the admin UI, front-end behavior, upload, login flow, etc.).
  • ✅ Pass: you see the module-specific behavior described above.
  • ❌ Fail: re-check this module’s settings and Pro install/license, then look for another plugin doing the same job.
  • No change after enabling. Confirm the toggle is on, hard-refresh, and review this module’s settings.
  • Conflicts. Temporarily disable other plugins that implement the same feature.
  • Locked / inactive. Install WP PowerSuite Pro beside the free plugin and activate your license.
  • Unexpected side effect. Toggle System Summary off to revert, then re-enable with adjusted settings.

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

Terminal window
# Turn the module on
wp powersuite module enable system-summary
# Turn the module off
wp powersuite module disable system-summary
# Check whether it is on, its category, and where its settings live
wp powersuite module get system-summary

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.
