Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Sky Changelog Notifier

No, this plugin only enhances automatic update notification emails. Manual updates don't trigger these emails.

Yes! Use the built-in testing feature: * Web: /wp-admin/?test_changelog_retrieval&_wpnonce=<nonce> (generate nonce with action sky_changelog_notifier_test) * WP-CLI: wp changelog akismet 5.3 plugin

The plugin is designed for WordPress core automatic update emails and includes a dedicated integration for Easy Updates Manager. Other update management plugins may work when they use the standard WordPress email filters, but they are not currently part of the tested compatibility matrix.

No. All changelog fetches are cached for 1 hour, and the plugin only runs during automatic updates.

Uninstalling the plugin from the WordPress Plugins screen removes its settings, cached changelogs, and local changelog history. Deactivating the plugin keeps this data.
