What is WP Foreman?
One dashboard for every WordPress site you look after. Here’s what works today and what’s coming.
Updated Oct 11, 2026
WP Foreman is a dashboard for agencies and freelancers who look after lots of WordPress sites. You connect each site once with a small plugin, and a crew of specialists handles the routine work: backups, updates, uptime, security, performance and client reports.

Meet the crew
Every part of WP Foreman is run by a crew member. You’ll see their faces in the app menu and in these docs.
| Crew | Job | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Lockup | Encrypted, incremental backups kept at least 90 days | Live |
| Rivet, the Updater | Install, update and delete plugins, themes and WordPress core | Live |
| Safety Officer | Backs up before every change; automatic rollback if checks fail is coming | Live (rollback coming) |
| Inspector | Before-and-after screenshots and PageSpeed checks | Live |
| Watchman | Uptime, SSL and domain expiry alerts | Live |
| Sweeper | Daily scans for known vulnerabilities in plugins, themes and WordPress (alerts, not patching) | Live |
| Reporter | Plain-English client reports on your letterhead | Live |
What works today
- Sign in with Google or a one-time email link.
- Add sites, group them by client, and connect them with a one-time key.
- See each site’s WordPress, PHP, plugin and theme versions and which updates are waiting. The list refreshes every 30 minutes.
- Backups: on a schedule or any time, choose what to include, browse, download as .zip, restore, and clone to another site.
- Plugins and themes: install, activate, update and delete on one site or across all of them, with a backup first.
What’s next
Client reports, a client portal, uptime and SSL monitoring, speed and visual checks, security scans, analytics, rules, renewals, the Foreman chat and the public API are all live too. Next: our MCP server, form testing and automatic rollback. The changelog lists everything as it ships.
