Disabled Core Updates

    Hi folks,

    I have Easy Updates Core set to disable, yet my host was able to update core recently. They say there is nothing preventing core updates and suggest I add:

    define( 'WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', false );

    to my wp-config.php.

    Should I? Should EUM actually be set to manual instead of disable to achieve blocking core updates?

    I appreciate your insight.

    Thanks.

    Hi ,

    EUM stops the core updates showing in the “Updates” section of your WP Dashboard.

    This would not stop your hosts from updating your core via other methods such as wp-cli

    define('WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', false ); – This would only stop automatic updates so it also would not prevent your hosts for manually updating.

    In your hosting it would be worth checking if you have the option to “do not automatically update” selected: https://snipboard.io/LoNtkH.jpg

    Thanks so much for the reply!

    So if I have EUM set as shown below, do I gain “anything” from adding that code to to WP-Config? Should I change any EUM setting there?

    Thanks again!

    The setting you have taken a screenshot of does exactly the same thing as that line of code so there is no point adding this code to your wp-config
