Descripció
Siteversary is a lightweight, zero-configuration plugin that shows when your WordPress site was born (created).
Instead of relying on a single (often unreliable) data point, Siteversary checks multiple signals – the oldest user registration, the oldest post (including the original «Hello world!»), and the oldest comment – and uses the earliest one as your site’s birthdate. The widget tells you which signal was used, so you always know where the date came from.
Perfect for:
- Web developers managing multiple WordPress installations
- Freelancers maintaining client sites
- Website owners curious about their site’s origins
- Celebrating site anniversaries
Features:
- Dashboard widget showing the site birthdate in your own date/time format
- Site age displayed in years, months and days
- Countdown to the next site anniversary (with a little celebration on the day itself)
- Multi-signal detection for reliable results even after migrations
- Result is cached, so the widget adds no measurable load
- Visible to administrators only
- No settings, no tracking, no bloat – a single small file
Instal·lació
- Upload the plugin folder to the
/wp-content/plugins/directory or install via the WordPress admin panel. - Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu.
- View the Siteversary widget on your Dashboard.
PMF

How does it detect the install date?
-
It compares three signals stored by WordPress itself: the oldest user registration date, the oldest post date, and the oldest comment date. The earliest of these is used as the site’s birthdate. This multi-signal approach survives cases where a single signal is misleading (e.g. the original admin user was deleted, or content was imported).
-
The detected date looks wrong. Why?
-
If your site was migrated or content was imported from another site, the oldest record may predate (or postdate) the actual installation. The widget shows which signal was used, so you can judge its accuracy. The detection result is cached for a week; deactivating and reactivating the plugin re-runs it immediately.
-
Can I customize the date format?
-
Yes – it automatically uses your site’s date and time format settings under Settings > General.
-
Will this slow down my site?
-
No. It runs only on the dashboard, for administrators, and the detection result is cached. It has zero effect on frontend performance.
