    Hi, I have just updated to 4.2 and now I am being asked for FTP credentials when I try to access the Plugins menu.
    How can I disable this as I do not use FTP at all and only SCP.
    I do updates from shell using subversion and I do not wish my website files to be owned by the webserver either.

    You can disable File modifications to theme & plugin if you are using version control by

    define( 'DISALLOW_FILE_MODS', true );

    Thanks Tim.
    I was also using
    define( 'WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', false );
    with varying results.
    After a proper refresh of the plugins page the message went away.
