WordPress has a built-in feature to install themes and plugins by supplying a zip file. Unfortunately, you cannot upgrade a theme or plugin using the same process. Instead, WordPress will say “destination already exists” when trying to upgrade using a zip file and will fail to upgrade the theme or plugin.
Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades fixes this limitation in WordPress by automatically upgrading the theme or plugin if it already exists.
While upgrading, a backup copy of the old theme or plugin is first created. This allows you to install the old version in case of problems with the new version.
Attention: Version 2.0.0 changed the functionality of the plugin. You are no longer required to select “Yes” from a drop down before the theme or plugin can be upgraded. The need for an upgrade is now detected automatically. So, if you are used to the old functionality of the plugin, do not be concerned about the absence of upgrade details on the theme and plugin upload pages. Simply upload the theme or plugin as if you were installing it, and the plugin will automatically handle upgrading as needed.

This is a great plugin, and works exactly as intended.

Works great!


This was a GREAT plugin and I used it for years, but WordPress core does this now, so the plugin is no longer needed.  Thank you for your great work all these years.


No longer needed

Easily upgrade your themes and plugins using zip files without removing the theme or plugin first.

If you don’t check your admin panel very often when installing WordPress (perhaps because you prefer to use remote publishing) or want to make sure 
that your clients ‘ WordPress installations are updated, then this plugin is for you. You don’t need to regularly log in to your admin panel, 
subscribe to an RSS feed, or do anything other than install this plugin to receive notifications when WordPress updates, plugins, and themes are released to Telegram messenger.
All you have to do is install the telegram Update Notifier and forget about it until you get a message about the required updates.
To change the Update Notifier Telegram settings, go to the Update Notifier Telegram section in the main settings menu. From there, you can add a unique telegram ID 
that you need to get by writing to the Telegram bot (https://t.me/update_notifier_telegram_bot) . You can also activate update notifications for themes and plugins.
