   When I try to update plugins or wordpress itself it asks me to enter ftp information first... I have a VPS hosting and what settings should I change to make automatic update work?

   Thanks

   That's the way some hosting situations work--so file in the FTP information to complete the update.

   You could put these constants in your wp-config.php file so you don't have to reenter them each upgrade:
   

   define('FTP_HOST', 'yourftphost.com');
   define('FTP_USER', 'ftp user here');
   define('FTP_PASS', 'ftp password here');

   and some other constants that might be useful:
   

   define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');
   define('FS_TIMEOUT', 900);

   See Editing wp-config.php

   Also look at the Core Control Plugin to 'manage' your transports.
