    Hi

    the auto updates for WP core and plugins do not happen although all boxes and settings are ticked.

    4.7 was released more than 2 days ago now. The same for woocommerce

    Is iControlWP necessary for the auto updates to happen ?

    In the plugins section, I also noticed a little hammer at the end of each line of every plugin saying that updates are applied manually by admin.

    it’s confusing, as the settings are all set on auto update

    Nope, automatic update should happen here. If they’re not, then you have 1 of 3 things going on:

    1) You have defines set somewhere, perhaps in your wp-config.php as laid out here:
    https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Configuring_Automatic_Background_Updates
    You could have all automatic updates disabled for example using a define and then it doesn’t matter what setting you use elsewhere

    2) You have another plugin or theme which is also modifying the WordPress automatic updates filters or setting defines as in (1)

    3) The cron jobs on your site aren’t working. Check your error_log files to see if you’re getting any regularly occurring errors on your site and perhaps use a plugin like WP Crontrol to dig into it a bit further.

    Hope this helps!
