Plugin Auto-Update Missing In Some Installations
-
All my sites (six of them) have succesfully updated to 5.5. In exactly half (3), the Plugin Auto-Update function has shown up. The other three do not display the Enable/Disable auto-updates links, or other UI related to this.
Five of the six sites are hosted on the same server, with the same PHP and MySQL versions. So I’ve looked at what’s different about these installations:
Language: set to EN in some, NL in others, but not correlated with the issue.
Plugins: The simplest site of the five uses a set of plugins that I also use in all the other sites, and this simplest site does not have plugin auto-update.
Themes: One site has a commercial theme (Avid Magazine), and that site does have plugin auto-updates. The other sites have various Twenty iterations as theme, and of those, only Twenty Ten has plugin auto-updates; the others don’t.
Child Themes: One site does not have a child theme, but does have plugin auto-updates; the other sites all have child themes, and one of those does have plugin auto-updates, the others don’t.
WPML: Two of the sites have WPML installed and multi-lingual content. One of those has plugin auto-updates, the other doesn’t. Of the sites without WPML, one does have plugin auto-updates, the others don’t.
So of the obvious differences between the sites, none correlate with the presence or absense of plugin auto-updates.
What else could be causing plugin auto-updates to be absent?
