<p>This plugin is a fork of <code>Disable All WordPress Updates</code> plugin. Like that plugin, Core Updates Permission completely disables the theme, plugin and core update checking system in WordPress. The plugin prevents WordPress from checking for updates including cronjobs, and prevents any notifications from being displayed. The one significant difference is that this plugin also allows you to pick and choose administrators that <em>can</em> have the ability to make updates.</p>
<p>It’s <em>very</em> important that you keep your WordPress theme, core and plugins up to date. If you don’t, your blog or website could be <strong>susceptible to security vulnerabilities</strong> or performance issues.</p>
<p>If you use this plugin, it’s a good idea to give one administrator the ability to see update notifications to keep up to date with new releases of your active WordPress version, plugins and themes and update them as new versions are released.</p>

WP Updates Settings

I like this plugin because it takes away the mundane task up updating everything on sites that do not to be babysat. Yeah, it seems to miss some plugins, like iThemes, but that's not surprising since they have their own proprietary update system (so it seems). Handy!
