?? Disable auto-update Email Notifications

Since WordPress 5.5 version, if you have enabled plugin and theme auto-update you will receive an automated email notifications when any plugin or theme auto-update is successful or failed.

If you manage a dozen of websites, then the you will receive the constant stream of auto-update notifications emails and may be it annoying you.

Blocked User Notifications Too

tansandals November 19, 2024

I mean, yes it disables annoying notifications. The problems is it blocked all my new user notifications as well, so that when I added a new user, they never received the email. Couldn’t find any settings to address this.

I think your descriptions are wrong

From what I can tell your plugin does the following disables plugin updates disables theme updates disables wordpress core updates disables update notifications. Because you are disabling the updates the descriptions should be Disable all plugin updates. Disable all theme updates Disable all WordPress core updates Disable plugins & themes auto-update email notifications. The description should read This plugin will completely disable the Plugin, Theme, and WordPress core update notifications. It will also disable auto-update Email Notifications for Plugins, Themes and WP CORE.

Lethal flaw since last update

himalayande June 18, 2024

It worked great – until the last (auto-) update. Immediately the option to auto-update ALL of my plugins (including woocommerce and 23 others) disappeared and the wordpress auto update function itself was disabled. This sent me on a wild goose chase for half a day until I could locate your plugin as the cause.

Great
