Cloudways Profitability Reporting (WordPress plugin)

WordPress admin plugin that syncs your Cloudways servers/apps and helps you track server cost vs app pricing to understand profitability (revenue, profit, margin) per server.

Features

  • Sync Cloudways servers + apps into WordPress tables
  • Track server monthly cost and optional client price
  • Track app monthly price and cost-share allocation settings
  • Dashboard + charts for revenue/cost/profit and margin
  • “Needs attention” highlights missing pricing/cost data

Requirements

  • WordPress 6.x (should work on 5.9+, but 6.x recommended)
  • PHP 8.0+ recommended
  • A Cloudways account with API access

Install (local / manual)

  1. Copy this folder into wp-content/plugins/ as:
    • cloudways-profitability-tracker/
  2. Activate Cloudways Profitability Tracker
  3. In WP Admin, go to Cloudways Profitability → Settings
  4. Enter your Cloudways email and API key
  5. Go to the Dashboard and click Run sync now

Notes

  • Currency display: set a 3-letter currency code (default USD) in Settings. USD is displayed with $ for cleaner visuals.
  • Data storage: the plugin creates its own tables (see includes/db.php).

CSV exports

The Servers admin page provides separate server and site CSV downloads. Monetary values are plain decimal numbers without currency symbols or thousands separators; the currency is included in its own column.

  • The server export contains the effective server revenue and identifies whether it comes from a server-level price or the sum of site prices.
  • The site export contains site_revenue when revenue is tracked per site.
  • When a server-level revenue override is used, site_revenue is blank because that total is not allocated to individual sites. In those rows, revenue_tracking_level is server_level and server_revenue contains the server total for context. The repeated server total must not be summed across site rows.

Development

  • Main plugin file: cloudways-profitability-tracker.php
  • Key modules:
    • includes/sync.php – Cloudways API sync + persistence
    • includes/reports.php – profitability calculations + formatting
    • includes/admin-menu.php – admin UI + charts

Security

This plugin stores Cloudways API credentials in WordPress options. Treat the site as sensitive:

  • Use least-privilege WP admin access
  • Prefer staging/testing sites for development
  • Rotate API keys if you suspect exposure
