<p>Updatronix logs every core, plugin, theme, and translation update that WordPress processes. It records version snapshots, trigger types, and technical details, and stores everything in your site’s database.</p>
<p>The plugin also provides auto-update controls that save directly to native WordPress options, email routing for built-in notification emails, and detection of <code>wp-config.php</code> constants that override update behavior. It does not replace the WordPress update engine, perform rollbacks, or connect to external services.</p>
<h4>Update logging</h4>
<ul>
<li>Record the name, slug, type, and status of every update.</li>
<li>Store version-before and version-after snapshots for each event.</li>
<li>See what triggered each update — a manual action, the automatic update system, or a file upload.</li>
<li>Review the technical process messages that WordPress generates during the upgrade.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Auto-update controls</h4>
<ul>
<li>Set core updates to apply all versions, minor releases only, or manual-only mode.</li>
<li>Toggle auto-updates for individual plugins and themes using the same options WordPress reads natively.</li>
<li>View <code>wp-config.php</code> constants (such as <code>WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE</code>) that override your settings, so you can spot configuration conflicts.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Email routing</h4>
<p>Updatronix filters the notification emails WordPress sends — it does not create a separate notification system.</p>
<ul>
<li>Redirect core update alerts, auto-update notices, and recovery mode emails to the recipients you choose.</li>
<li>Select which event types trigger a notification.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Failure tracking</h4>
<ul>
<li>View log entries even when an update fails due to a server timeout or fatal error.</li>
<li>Review error details that the shutdown handler captures for manual recovery.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Privacy Statement</h3>
<p>Updatronix does not collect, store, or transmit personal data to third parties. There are no external service dependencies or telemetry. All update logs stay in your site’s own WordPress database.</p>
<h3>Accessibility Statement</h3>
<p>Updatronix aims to be fully accessible to all of its users.</p>

This simple plugin solve my problem of having unwanted updates, both for plugins and for WordPress.And with the logs I can keep track of what is updated and when, this is quite important to clarify some workflow.I once used a similar plugin, but It was way heavy and was more "brute-force".


Lightweight and convenient


Great plugin to log updates! Update log interface is clear and easy to navigate, making my updates tracking way more convenient. Combined with the mail routing options, it's a nice setup to keep an eye on eventual issues with auto-updates. I would love a one-click option to access the update details though. 


Simple and clear updates logging

Log every WordPress update with version details, manage auto-updates through native settings, and route notification emails to chosen recipients.
