This plugin adds some options to your Settings > General page, letting you specify how auto-upgrades should function, without the need to specify constants or add filters by hand.

Update Control

Auto update WP core -> work!
Auto update themes -> work!
Auto update plugins -> work!

but...

Auto update self hosted plugins -> work only one! (Manual update by hand also work only one, i don't know why.)
Auto update self hosted themes -> work only one! (Manual update by hand also work only one, i don't know why.)

---------------

Auto update core send email -> work!
Auto update plugins/themes send email -> not working! (Is its default functional to not sending email from these type of update?)

Work as expect.

Cool

This adds some options to your Settings > General page that let you tweak auto-updates.
