<p>WP Disables Updates allow you to disables plugin or themes or translation or wordpress core updates.</p>
<p>Major features :</p>
<ul>
<li>Disable plugins updates.</li>
<li>Disable themes updates.</li>
<li>Disable translation updates.</li>
<li>Disable WordPress core updates.</li>
</ul>
<p>PS: Used there features if you know what you are doing. No updates = Security holes, but sometimes updates may break your website.<br />
WordPress has added a quite convenient feature since version 3.7: Automatic update.</p>
<p>But sometimes, updates can be a real problem for your website.<br />
It is important to make updates to avoid security problems, but you must be very careful when applying updates.<br />
For example, if you use a prenium theme and you have not made a child theme for the changes. If the theme requires an update, it may delete all your changes and lost working hours….</p>
<p>But be careful, it’s to be used, if you know what you’re doing. You have to be on the lookout for changes made to the plugins.<br />
If a correction has been made to fill a security hole or just to improve the plugin.</p>

WP Disables Updates

A simple and effective plugin to turn off WordPress update notifications selectively. I have found two uses for this so far:

1. When a premium theme is broken and is erroneously reporting that there is an update available and there is not.
2. When you want to disable certain update notifications on a production site because you prefer to test them locally, commit them to your repository and push the changes to production.

Simple and Works

WP Disables Updates allow you to disables plugin or themes or wordpress core updates.

<p>Update Compass is a decision-first WordPress admin plugin that helps you evaluate plugin and theme updates before installing them.</p>
<p>Instead of only showing that an update is available, Update Compass adds a local analysis layer and recommends what to do next based on version changes, compatibility metadata, changelog signals, and release timing.</p>
<p>It keeps the native WordPress update workflow. Updates are still performed through standard WordPress update mechanisms.</p>
<h3>How It Works</h3>
<p>WordPress already detects updates. Update Compass reads that data and adds decision guidance such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>Update Ready</li>
<li>Stage & Test</li>
<li>Watch & Wait</li>
<li>Hold Off</li>
<li>Needs Review</li>
</ul>
<p>Each status includes a short explanation and next-step guidance. For higher-risk updates, users can open status details for deeper analysis and reminder scheduling.</p>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Pre-update risk analysis for plugins and themes</li>
<li>Clear status badges with explanations and next steps</li>
<li>Version jump analysis (major, minor, patch deltas)</li>
<li>WordPress compatibility checks (<code>requires</code> / <code>tested</code>)</li>
<li>Changelog keyword detection (best effort)</li>
<li>Changelog links (WordPress.org modal/external links when available)</li>
<li>Reminder dates for monitoring and re-check workflows</li>
<li>Bulk update selection with caution confirmation for non-ready updates</li>
<li>Local-first workflow, no external account required</li>
</ul>
<h3>Who Is This For</h3>
<ul>
<li>WordPress developers</li>
<li>Agencies maintaining multiple sites</li>
<li>Site owners managing complex plugin/theme stacks</li>
<li>WooCommerce or multilingual sites where update risk is higher</li>
</ul>
<h3>Decision Logic (Summary)</h3>
<p>Update Compass uses local rules to assess update risk, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>Version delta analysis (major/minor/patch jumps)</li>
<li>WordPress compatibility metadata checks</li>
<li>Changelog keyword signals (when changelog text is available)</li>
<li>Release recency and stale-project checks</li>
<li>Changelog availability (flags manual review when missing)</li>
</ul>
<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>Update Compass is local-first and does not require an account.</p>
<p>To improve changelog-based reasoning, it may make server-side requests to publicly available changelog/metadata endpoints when available (for example WordPress.org plugin/theme metadata and changelog pages, or vendor-provided changelog URLs exposed in WordPress update data).</p>
<p>This is best-effort only and used to enrich analysis. Core update detection still relies on WordPress native update transients.</p>


Update Compass

Stop guessing when to update. Analyze plugin and theme updates before installing them with clear status guidance and next steps.
