@andreab I suggest you create a separate thread about this so that we can discuss with you the specifics of your site, as we may need sensitive data such as your site credentials.
@nigel I followed your clear instructions by clicking the 'Add New Plugins > Commercial' and checking, updating from there.
Just a quick question. As a lot of our WP sites will be configured to update WP to minor releases automatically and we can't always be on top of newsletter announcements, I'm thinking it might be safer to disable any core WP updates for any sites using WPML. Not ideal.
please develop the system so that no manual click is needed for "Check updates", either make it automatically check updates with cron or add support for WP CLI to get the updates.
I broke tens of sites with WP CLI routine today, wasn't too happy.
@richard it is thankfully not common for WordPress to introduce breaking changes without enough notice for us to publish updates well ahead of the release, so this doesn't arise often, but it is obviously a serious inconvenience when it does. (Although WPML is affected this time, it can happen to anyone.)
You must choose what you think is best for your clients and their sites, but my instinct would be to only have WordPress automatic updates for minor versions and security releases. Really, major updates should get tested on a staging site before updating production servers.
@oskarim I'm sorry about that, I appreciate how much of a pain that would be. We have an internal ticket about applying a bulk check for updates across all your registered sites, and I'll pass on your feedback to see if that can get implemented sooner rather than later.
I do not know if it was in your hand, but it has caused the fall, in our case, of more than 30 client websites coinciding with holidays in our country. The problem has been serious.
