Environment Info User Guide

Your whole Magento stack, on one screen

Environment Info gathers everything a developer asks for when a store is slow or a deploy fails — your server, PHP, database, cache, search engine, Magento version and disk usage — onto a single admin page, with health checks that flag common problems before they bite. No SSH session, no phpinfo() dump, no digging through config files.

It is read-only: it only reads information when you open the page. There is no frontend output, no cron job, no writes and no external calls, so there is zero impact on your store or its speed. And it's free — create a free Cabbage Patch Studios account to download it, and it runs without any licence key.

What the dashboard shows

Open the dashboard and the whole environment is laid out in clean cards:

• Server — operating system, hostname, web server, IP and architecture.
• PHP — version, SAPI, memory_limit, max_execution_time, upload/post limits, max_input_vars, OPcache status and every loaded extension.
• Database — engine, version, database name, table count and total size.
• Search — engine (OpenSearch / Elasticsearch), version, status and host.
• Cache & Sessions — your cache and session backends, and the Valkey/Redis version.
• Magento — version, edition, mode, deploy mode and base URL.
• Disk Space — total, used and free for the Magento partition, with a usage donut.
• Installed Modules — a searchable list of every module and its version, with enabled/total counts.

The health checks

Beyond the raw facts, a built-in Health Check grades your environment against Magento's real-world requirements and sorts the results worst-first, so the important things jump out:

Each check maps to a genuine Magento recommendation — nothing is invented. Fix an Error before you go live; act on Warnings to keep the store fast and stable; treat Info notes as advisories.

Opening it & who can see it

1. Install Environment Info (free) — download it from your Cabbage Patch Studios account.
2. In the admin, go to System → Environment Info.
3. The dashboard gathers and displays everything on demand. Nothing is stored and nothing is written.

Access is controlled by a dedicated admin permission, so you decide exactly who can open it. Because it's read-only and changes nothing about your store, it's safe to hand to anyone on your team who needs to see the environment — or to copy the details from when you raise a support ticket.

It's a backend dashboard, independent of your storefront theme, so it works the same on Luma, Hyvä and Lurox, across every store view.
