Custom Update Request Modifier

Control update checks and log API requests for your CMS.

Visit site

This plugin intercepts and modifies HTTP requests made by a content management system for updates. It is designed for developers and site administrators who need to customize how their site communicates with external update servers, particularly for managing extensions from various sources.

  • User-Agent Modification: Changes the user-agent string in outgoing API requests, which can help with server-side request filtering or compatibility.
  • Custom API URL Monitoring: Allows you to specify which API endpoints to monitor, ensuring only relevant update requests are tracked and logged.
  • Detailed Request Logging: Records full request details, including headers and body content, to a dedicated database table for troubleshooting and audit purposes.
  • Update Exclusion: Automatically prevents update checks for plugins and themes that specify a custom update URI, useful for managing privately hosted extensions.
  • Configurable Settings: Provides an admin interface to manage monitored URLs and view logs, with scheduled automatic log cleanup to manage database size.
