Hello,

I would like to know that how can i enable “Enable auto-updates” option on my custom plugin?

I am trying to update my plugin with this new feature.

Is there any custom code required to Enable/Disable auto-updates plugin?

It’s a core feature. If your plugin detects updates via the normal mechanisms, the auto-update feature should “just work”.

Hi Steven,

Thanks for your feedback.

My custom plugin is not showing this option by default.

How is your plugin updated normally? Is it hosted on wordpress.org?

Yes my plugin is on WP.org and when I push any changes with new updates, it’s showing that update is available.

but I am talking about the new feature of “Enable auto-updates” within my custom plugin.

How can add this option for my plugin?
This option is not showing for on plugin row.

As long as auto-updates are not disabled site-wide, it should “just work”.

Please install the health check plugin and report back its findings: https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/

on the INFO tab of site health, is there any reference to updates? It does not look like you installed the health check plugin.

The plugin i am looking at is not uploaded on WP.Org
And that’s the reason it does not have Auto-update link 🙂
