Cachet
Learn how to manage Cachet.
Cachet provides the ability to customize various settings to suit your needs. To manage Cachet, navigate to the “Settings” section found in your Cachet dashboard.
Site Name
You may change the name of your status page by updating the “Site Name” field. This is the name that will be displayed in the title and header of your status page.
About Section
The “About” section allows you to provide a brief description of your status page. This is an ideal section to provide information about your organization, services, or status page.
The “About This Site” section supports Markdown formatting.
Timezone
The “Timezone” setting allows you to set the timezone for your status page. This is used to display the correct time for incidents and scheduled maintenance. The status page will always display timestamps in the user’s local time.
Incident Days
This setting allows you to specify the number of days to display incidents on your status page. Incidents older than the specified number of days will be pushed into separate pages.
We recommend that you set this value to a reasonable number of days to ensure that your status page remains performant and does not overload users with too much information.
Major Outage Threshold
The “Major Outage Threshold” setting allows you to configure how many components (as a % of your total components) must be down before the system status is marked as “Major Outage”.
When the number of down components exceeds the specified threshold, the status page will display a “Major Outage” banner.
Automatically Refresh Page
The “Automatically Refresh Page” setting allows you to enable or disable the automatic refresh of your status page. When enabled, the status page will automatically refresh at the specified interval.
The provided number will be the number of seconds between each refresh.
Other Settings
Cachet also provides additional settings to customize your status page.
Support Cachet
The “Support Cachet” setting allows you to enable or disable the “Powered by Cachet” link in the footer of your status page.
We’d really appreciate it if you could leave this enabled to help spread the word about Cachet 💚
Display Graphs
The “Display Graphs” setting allows you to enable or disable the display of graphs on your status page. When enabled, the status page will display graphs for metrics such as uptime and response time.
Metrics are not fully supported in Cachet v3.x. This setting will have no effect until metrics are implemented.
Show Timezone
The “Show Timezone” setting allows you to enable or disable the display of the timezone on your status page. When enabled, the status page will display the timezone in the footer.
Only Show Disrupted Days
The “Only Show Disrupted Days” setting allows you to enable or disable the display of days with incidents on your status page. When enabled, the status page will only display days with incidents. By default, all days are displayed.
Show Dashboard Link
The “Show Dashboard Link” setting allows you to enable or disable the display of the “Dashboard” link in the header of your status page. When enabled, the status page will display a link to the Cachet dashboard.
