    Hi,
    Great plugin.

    Please consider:

    1)
    The plugin I believe emails a message that starts with:

    We have updated one or more plugins on your WordPress site at …….

    Please consider changing this to

    Companion Auto Update has updated one or more plugins on your WordPress site at …….

    Because I was also using another update plugin and so I did not know which plugin this email was coming from….. Plus WP itself sends out a message as well. And this email also does not say which software sent the message.

    2)

    The plugin setting has:

    Send me emails when something has been updated.

    I believe wp itself also sends an email regarding updates. So if this setting is enabled, I get 2 emails. This is what is currently happening.

    Please consider:

    Send me emails when something has been updated, in addition to the standard WordPress core email.

    3)

    The plugin has settings:

    Auto update minor core updates?

    Auto update major core updates?

    Please consider explaining what each one means.

    For example, I thought major updates means going from 4.x to 5.x. eg 4.9.9 to 5.0.0. But another update does explain this setting and says it is to go from 4.x to 4.x+1, eg 4.8.x to 4.9.x.
    I want to avoid going to 5.x due to Gutenberg but would like to update in the 4.x versions.

    I believe “minor” updates is going from 4.9.x to 4.9.x+1 eg 4.9.1 to 4.9.2. Is this correct?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    I’ll have a look at how I can implement #1 in the best way.
    As for #2, WordPress does not send notifications about Plugins & Themes, only core (which Companion Auto Update does not send, it only offers an option to disable these).

    Bedankt 🙂

    Mmmmm I am not sure what is happening on my site then.

    I just got 2 emails:

    WordPress site: ………………….
    The following plugins were successfully updated:
    * SUCCESS: Gutenberg

    UPDATE LOG
    ==========

    Gutenberg
    ———
    Updating plugin: Gutenberg
    Downloading update from https://downloads.wp.xz.cn/plugin/gutenberg.3.5.0.zip…
    Unpacking the update…
    Installing the latest version…
    Removing the old version of the plugin…
    Plugin updated successfully.

    And (I believe this is your plugin)

    We have updated one or more plugins on your WordPress site at https://…………. , be sure to check if everything still works properly. The following plugins have been updated:
    – Gutenberg

    I only have your plugin installed so I am not sure where the 1st message is coming from. It also does not mention who/waht sent it. I assumed it was core.

    Sorry for my confusion but this is why I would like to suggest plugins mention their name when they send emails….

    The second email is indeed by my plugin, the first email is one I’ve never seen before so I have no idea where it’s coming from either. Looks like it could be core, but even my sites that run WordPress beta don’t send me emails like that so I honestly have no idea.

    I’ve been working on new and improved emails anyway so I’ll mention the plugin name somewhere 🙂
