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. Cachet displays this name 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. Cachet uses it 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. Cachet pushes incidents older than the specified number of days onto 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 percentage of your total components) must be down before Cachet marks the system status 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 controls whether your status page refreshes automatically. When enabled, the status page refreshes 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 toggles 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

Enable the “Display Graphs” setting to display graphs for metrics, such as uptime and response time, on your status page.
Metrics are not fully supported in Cachet v3.x. This setting will have no effect until metrics are implemented.

Show timezone

When enabled, the “Show Timezone” setting displays your status page’s timezone in the footer.

Only show disrupted days

Enable the “Only Show Disrupted Days” setting to show only the days with incidents on your status page. By default, the status page displays all days. The “Show Dashboard Link” setting controls the “Dashboard” link in the header of your status page. When enabled, the status page displays a link to the Cachet dashboard.
