    Hi,

    i'm currently writing a plugin and would like to make it updatable (ie, in dashboard plugin list user gets notified of an upate).

    I've checked tutorials and on the net but can't find anything.

    Also i'm presuming when a user does go to update the plugin, that the new version will be the full plugin and just overwrite the old files?

    Thanks for your help

    If you use the WordPress plugin directory, you can manage updates and version changes using SVN. Anyone running your plugin will be notified of version changes and given the option to upgrade (automatically), all handled by WordPress!
