Can't Update Plugins - Wrong Update Path - 404 Error (7 posts)

    When I click the "Update Now" button for any plugin, it redirects to a 404 page not found.

    There is a problem with update URLs. For example, the "Update Now" URL for "Contact Form 7" is as bellow

    http://www.websiteurl.com/wp-admin/3.2.1

    All plugins are in same status. "Update now" URL is in following format "/wp-admin/VERSION-NUMBER-OF-PLUGIN", which result in 404 page.

    I have disabled all plugins but it didn't help.

    Any ideas what could be the issue?

    Thank you.

    I still haven't found any solution for this problem. Anyone has any ideas of what could be the problem.

    I haven't found a solution for this but for anyone having a similar problem, a workaround is to click on the link which takes you to the details popup about plugin update and start the update process from there.

    I've been having the same issue and nobody has responded to any of my threads. thank you so so much for the work around.

    I find that I cannot update themes and even edit the settings for select plugins (Disable Comments being one of them). My jetpack stats do not display correctly now as well. have you made any headway with this?

    I've noticed that this has all happened since updating to 3.5.1...

    Sorry I won't have much help since I don't have the other problems as you do. I had problem in updating the themes but it was related to file permissions. I corrected that and now I can update the themes.

    Try looking in your wp-config file.

    I don't know what the exact issue is, but it sounds like you may have specified a variable you shouldn't have.

    Do any of them look like the url (or part thereof) that the plugins attempt to access?
    I could be well off - but worth checking.
