Описание
Disable Updates is a lightweight updates manager that gives you full control over how and when updates run on your site. You can disable all updates, turn off automatic updates, or manage updates individually for WordPress core, plugins, and themes.
Key Features
Disable Plugin Updates
You can disable plugin updates globally or manage them on a per-plugin basis. This allows you to prevent update notifications for all plugins or selectively disable updates only for specific plugins you want to keep unchanged.
The plugin also lets you disable automatic plugin updates, giving you full control over which plugins update automatically and which ones require manual approval.
Disable Theme Updates
You can disable theme updates entirely or control them individually for each theme. This is especially useful if you are using custom themes or child themes where updates could overwrite changes.
You can also disable automatic theme updates or allow automatic updates only for selected themes, depending on your workflow.
Disable WordPress Core Updates
Take control of WordPress core updates by disabling them completely or managing how they are applied. You can choose to disable all core updates or fine-tune automatic updates by release type.
Options include:
- Disable WordPress core updates entirely
- Disable automatic core updates
- Allow automatic updates for major releases
- Allow automatic updates for minor releases
- Allow automatic development updates
This gives you full control over how WordPress itself updates on your site.

Часто задаваемые вопросы
-
Can I disable all WordPress updates completely?
-
Yes. Disable Updates plugin lets you disable all updates (core, plugins and themes) entirely.
-
What is the difference between disabling updates and disabling automatic updates?
-
Disabling updates stops WordPress from checking for and offering updates at all. Disabling automatic updates only prevents updates from being installed automatically, while still allowing you to see available updates and install them manually if you choose.
-
Can I still see available updates if I disable automatic updates?
-
Yes. When you disable automatic updates only, WordPress will still show available updates for core, plugins, and themes in the dashboard. You can review and install updates manually whenever you’re ready.
