Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Frozzer – Disable Updates & Update Control

Frozzer lets you disable WordPress core, plugin, and theme updates — globally or for individual items. It is ideal for staging sites, client sites, and any controlled update workflow.

Install and activate Frozzer, open the dashboard, and turn off plugin updates with a single toggle. To stop only one plugin, keep updates enabled globally and freeze that plugin on the Plugins & Themes screen.

Keep updates enabled globally, open the Plugins & Themes screen, and freeze the specific plugin. Everything else keeps updating normally.

Frozzer disables auto-updates for anything you freeze. Frozen core, plugins, and themes will not auto-update even if WordPress auto-updates are turned on.

No. Frozzer uses WordPress's standard update filters and does not modify any core files. Your site keeps working normally.

Only if you have another update workflow in place (a staging site, WP-CLI, hosting tools, and so on). Frozzer shows a security reminder for exactly this reason.

Yes. Enable updates globally, then freeze specific items on the Plugins & Themes screen.

You have three options: open Appearance → Themes and click "Freeze" on any theme card, use the Frozzer → Plugins & Themes screen, or run wp frozzer freeze theme <theme-slug>. Frozen themes are skipped by updates until you unfreeze them.

Yes, for frozen items. Because Frozzer removes a frozen item from WordPress's update list, it is skipped by automatic updates and by standard commands such as wp plugin update --all. Unfreeze the item (from the dashboard or with wp frozzer unfreeze) when you want to update it.

Frozzer stores its settings per site, so it works on an individual site within a network. Network-wide (super admin) controls are planned for a future release and are not officially tested yet.
