Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Forced Auto Updates

Yes, here it is: add_filter( 'automatic_updates_is_vcs_checkout', '__return_false', 1 ); That’s all this plugin does. Hosting it here just provides another way of applying that line of code, but if you prefer another method, feel free to use that and disregard this plugin.

There are several plugins you can use instead. For example, Update Control, Advanced Automatic Updates, and Easy Updates Manager. This plugin will always be option-free and only facilitate automatic background updates of minor WordPress releases. And keep in mind, despite the word “minor,” they can include critical security vulnerability fixes in WordPress core.

You can use a plugin by the WordPress team called Background Update Tester. It will warn you if there’s any reason an automatic background update would not apply.

Probably not. You only need it if you’re using version control system like Git or Subversion. You can use the Background Update Tester plugin to confirm though.
