About Disk Usage Widget Developer reference

Overview

Hosting storage fills up quietly until uploads or backups start failing. By then the site is already broken.

Plan: Free. Everything on this page is in the free plugin.

Setup

  1. Go to WP Extended in your WordPress admin and find Disk Usage Widget under Admin Tools.
  2. Switch Disk Usage Widget on.
  3. There is nothing to configure. The module works as soon as it is on.

Questions and troubleshooting

Is Disk Usage Widget free?

Yes. It is in the free plugin.

It isn’t working as expected

Check the module is switched on and its settings are saved. If another plugin does the same job, deactivate one of them. Then clear any page cache and test again. Still stuck? Pro customers can contact support; free users can post on the WordPress.org forum.
