Thaazhu Update Lock is a lightweight, <a href="https://projektisle.com/pi-plugins/thaazhu-update-lock/" rel="nofollow ugc">developer-focused</a> utility designed to give you absolute control over the WordPress update cycle. While WordPress provides a native way to toggle auto-updates, it lacks the ability to hard-lock a specific plugin version to prevent manual accidental updates or bulk-action overrides.
At its core, Thaazhu (a Malayalam word meaning “lock”) acts as a safety “clasp” for your site’s plugin updates. It allows administrators to freeze a plugin at its current version, ensuring that a critical environment remains stable until you are ready to perform testing and deployment.
Key Features: 
* Granular Version Control: Pick and choose which specific plugins stay frozen. 
* Contextual Documentation: Pair locks with notes to explain technical reasons for the restriction. 
* Modular Architecture: Built for performance without database bloat. 
* Bulk Update Protection: Locked plugins are disabled from bulk actions.
<h3>Usage</h3>

A wordpress plugin that allows you to secure your site from changes. You can prevent changes to your wp-admin, wp-content, wp-includes directories. Use this plugin if you got a nasty virus making changes to your site, cos it won’t be able to make changes if the site is non writable. There are some cons though, you won’t be able to upgrade if the site is completely non writable. When you do want to upgrade, make everything writable beforehand.
