As promised in the 2021 roadmap, StatusIQ will now have the option to customize colors in public status page, support for status widgets and email delivery confirmation. Read on for more details.

Pin status widgets on your website for around-the-clock status updates 

Users often have to access the status pages maintained by service or product owners to know if all services are available and to get information on active incidents and upcoming maintenance. To simplify access to this information, we're introducing status widgets. These are graphical widgets pinned on your website to display status updates, in three different styles.

Basic and Badge are simple widgets that display the overall status. The sticky widget can be pinned to a location of your choice, and it will hold its position when users scroll down the page. This way, visitors to your site will see a prominent note sharing any information they may need on real-time incidents and ongoing or upcoming maintenance. What's more? You can also customize the sticky widget colors as per your preference. Learn how you can add status widgets for your website.

Receive maintenance updates via iCalendar feed

Users can receive upcoming maintenance updates via the calendar application of their choice using the iCalendar Feed URL.

Similarly, users can receive maintenance and incident updates via multiple other channels including iFrame URL and RSS Feed. Read the detailed information on them here. 

Email delivery status

Once you've imported your subscriber's email IDs, they'll receive a subscriber confirmation email. After confirmation, they'll be able to receive incident notification emails. The delivery status of both, confirmation emails and incident notification emails can be checked. This way, you can ensure that the notifications rightly reach the user's inbox.

Color Customization

Jazz up the look of your status pages with color customizations. Every element, including buttons, background color, text and link colors can be customized to reflect the colors of your brand. You can also create a fully dark theme or a lighter background based on your preference. Read more.
