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!



Handy for the Right Site
