cState v6.0 - HUGE Update!
Version 6 Changelog and Migration Guide - Plus Unique New Add-Ons
A bigger focus on command-line and future automation support, a refreshed but still familiar design, and more.
This update has breaking changes to CSS, changes to the config file, and some fun, long awaited features.
A paid Pro version of cState with support is coming
Support development!
If you want to support me, [go to my sponsors page](https://github.com/sponsors/mistermantas) or, better yet, hire me for your project (you can email me using my profile email).
The upcoming Pro version of cState is not set to replace the open source version of cState but simply to make setting up everything, including monitoring, much easier.
Changes available today
⚠ It is recommend to upgrade to Hugo version 0.140.0 (the minimum Hugo version is 0.110.0).
- https://github.com/cstate/cstate-cli CLI tool - make new posts easier than ever before with a global
cstatecommand. Learn more on the repo page aboutcstate devand many other commands- Read more here: #333
- Free monitoring bot now available. We’re introducing a bot to monitor for downtime and update cState programmatically. This is the current replacement for a POST API while maintaining the same unique structure of cState. https://github.com/cstate/monitorbot
- Added a histogram, enabled by default for every component, drawing stats from the data cState already has – to enable when upgrading, add a
.Site.Params.enableUptimeHistogramoption as true. - Updated base design CSS and introduced new detail details, thus IE8 is no longer supported. New default font is DM Sans, replaceable with Custom HTML by creating a file under
/layouts/partials/custom/meta.html. - Better component pages. Extended description support is officially added (plus system pages now show the status) - #270
- Added /issues/ for viewing - and an option to hide a part of your incident history - #286
- Added Romanian language #335 from MarcUs7i
- The Netlify CMS
/adminbackend has been removed by default, since it’s been discontinued and the Netlify CMS’s successor Decap CMS is included at custom site level by default inexampleSiteif you still want to use it. - Fixes community raised issues, some of which are years old - #275, #330, #287, #320, #286, #257, #270
- New translation strings updated with AI
Coming later this year
- Notifications and the Subscribe button - all pages have an API and RSS option by default, with push notifications now available later this year with service workers or a monitor bot (cstate/monitorbot) for other services like Discord, Webhook URLs and more. These updates will be pushed to the repo and a future version of cState.

cState v5.5.1 with Hotfix + HTML Embed v2
cstate turns 5 years old this year! happy hacktoberfest!
HTML Embed upgrades to version 2! See the status without even opening a new tab
🚨 Show a dialog when the status changes in the corner of the screen OR 🟢 / 🔴 show a status indicator dot in the HTML markup (like in the footer)
⏰ Checks only on page load OR can be configured to do so every x seconds with setTimeout / programatically
And there's still an option to provide your own UI like in version 1!
cstate v5.5.1 includes an important hotfix for users of hugo v0.101 or later as well as other modifications from v5.5:
- #243 – replace icons to be better supported across operating systems
- #246 - translation bugfix (disrupted label did not show)
- #248 - Respect timezone even in last modified date when timeZone was set
- Better out of the box support for Cloudflare Pages:
To allow for the reading of API output by default on CF Pages, a _headers file is now added to /static/ from this version on. Netlify still has netlify.toml from the root. https://developers.cloudflare.com/pages/platform/headers/ – if you use CF Pages and the API does not work, make sure you have this file in the static folder.
