The Oh Dear blog
We love to share! Through our blog, we'll provide more details about upcoming features, interesting ideas we
have and share more insights into our current setup.
Today, we're introducing a new major feature: monthly site reports. In such a report, you got a bird's eye summary of everything we know of a site in a particular month.
To make sure that our service is working correctly, we have a suite of automated tests. The test suite is executed when we make changes and deploy something to production. Here's how we made this test suite four times faster.
Sometimes, we get a head-start when it comes to alerting on certificate revocations. From now, we'll be able to alert our users in a more standardised way of this happens.
Some of our users have received reports that their AddTrust External CA Root certificate is about to expire in less than 14 days. Here's how you can fix that.
Because of our unique way of monitoring SSL/TLS certificates, we uncovered an issue at a large commercial CDN provider. In this post, we'll deep-dive into how we detected this.
Yesterday, we sent out notifications to all our clients that are affected by the Let's Encrypt mass revocation of SSL certificates. In this post, we'll share the details how we found those certificates.
We recently launched our new Status Page feature. Under the hood, it's using the Caddy proxy server and Laravel's subdomain routing to serve the right status page on the right domain.
We're excited to announce that we've shipped some nice improvements to our broken links & mixed content checks. These checks both make use of the crawler that powers those features.
You can use our API to easily trigger an uptime and broken links check. If you add this to your deploy script, it can find broken links within minutes after your deploy.
Oh Dear! can crawl your sites twice a day. With some custom headers, you can let our crawls fetch new content from your servers and keep your Varnish cache warm for other users.
We've launched a cool feature for our users on the Laravel Forge platform: automatic monitoring of any of your sites and servers managed through Laravel Forge!
