Hi @weareferris,
What hosting company are you using? There are some hosting companies which control WordPress updates on their end and have the power to override things set in a plugin like ours. I haven’t had any other reports about this feature being broken, so I am suspecting it might have to do with your hosting.
Our plugin uses this filter here: https://developer.ww.wp.xz.cn/reference/hooks/automatic_updater_disabled/ to disable automatic updates. It is to my best knowledge that this filter is the best filter for this function.
Thanks
Thank you for your reply. Fast as always.
When you mentioned the filter, it gave me an idea. Before using your plugin, i disabled automatic updates in the usual approach, by setting a constant in the wp-config and a filter to meet the site health check. Then when I started using this plugin, instead of deleting the constant, I set its value to true. Why? I don’t really know =) So, I think that’s the reason for the error since constants take precedence over filters.
Sorry for my inconvenience.
No worries! I am glad that clears things up 🙂 Thank you and have a great rest of the day!
