WordPress Auto-updates πŸ€–

WordPress Auto-updates

A feature plugin to integrate Plugins & Themes automatic updates in WordPress Core.

About πŸ”Ž

The purpose of this repository is to prepare a future Plugins & Themes automatic updates feature.

To test/contribute, just install this plugin and activate it on your WordPress installation.

The goal of this plugin is to test the UI of the feature, to help decision making. It uses WordPress Core hooks (with potentially some hacks when needed).

For full details, see the Feature Plugin proposal published on Make/Core.

Interested in contributing to this plugin? Feel free to join us in #core-auto-updates channel on Make WordPress Slack Team. We’ll host weekly meetings on Slack every Tuesdays at 18:00 UTC.

Context ⏳

In 2018, Matt Mullenweg posted 9 projects for Core to focus on in 2019. We didn’t ship as many as hoped, but we made a lot of progress. Plugins and Themes Automatic Updates were one of those 9 projects. This project is now milestoned to WordPress 5.5 and this feature plugin is here to help move towards this achievement.
