Digitizer Site Worker for Aura
A free, open-source WordPress plugin that connects your sites to the Aura dashboard for remote monitoring, updates, and maintenance.
Extend Aura to Your WordPress Sites
While Aura manages your servers, CDN, and DNS across Cloudways, Cloudflare, and Bunny.net — Digitizer Site Worker extends that reach directly into each WordPress installation. Monitor site health, push updates to plugins, themes, and core, and run database maintenance — all from one dashboard, with zero impact on your visitors.
Features
Everything you need to manage WordPress sites remotely.
Site Health Monitoring
Real-time visibility into WordPress version, PHP version, installed plugins and themes, database info, and disk usage.
Remote Plugin Updates
Update any plugin remotely via the Aura dashboard — no need to log into each site individually.
Remote Theme Updates
Keep themes current across all your sites with one-click remote updates from a single interface.
WordPress Core Updates
Upgrade WordPress core remotely. Stay on the latest version without SSH or wp-admin access.
Translation & DB Updates
Bulk update all translation packs and run WordPress database upgrades in a single operation.
Zero Frontend Impact
Digitizer Site Worker only registers REST API endpoints. No scripts, styles, or database queries on your visitors' page loads.
Enterprise-Grade Security
Three layers of authentication protect every request.
WordPress Auth
Standard Application Passwords with capability checks (manage_options / update_plugins). Only authorized administrators can trigger actions.
Aura Site Token
Auto-generated 32-character token sent via X-Aura-Token header. Verified with timing-safe comparison on every request. Unique per site.
