Change it from `Default` to `On`. Please also make sure you have set `Enable core / plugin / theme updates` in respective sections. * If you have done already, do you see any warning messages in `Advanced` tab above` Force updates` option? If so, your hosting one click WP installer is disabled updates in your `wp-config.php` folder * Or do you see any errors in console? or server error log file? Did you try disabling other plugins? * Are available updates shown in dashboard? can you do update manually? * Sorry, It is lots of question rather than answer, but our plugin is working fine at our end and for other users as well. So it should be something with your settings. * Thread Starter [firassameer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/firassameer/) * (@firassameer) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-is-not-working-74/#post-10311727) * Hi Ventak, * thanks for your reply, * please note I have contacted the hosting and they assured their server is fully compatible with your plugin or similar plugins, and they are saying the truth cause my other websites on the same server are being updating regularly. * All the said options inside your plugins are set to auto update ON, and there are no error logs or messages above the force auto update. * Manually everything can be updated and I did a test in prior for that for the theme, wordpress ans some plugins. * Available updates are showing in the dashboard (10) so far pending. * and the below is the test result for my site using another plugin called (Background Update Test): ****************** Background Update Tester Automatic background updates require a number of conditions to be met. PASS: Your WordPress install can communicate with WordPress.org securely. PASS: No version control systems were detected. PASS: Your installation of WordPress doesn’t require FTP credentials to perform updates. PASS: All of your WordPress files are writable. This site is able to apply these updates automatically. Cool! * ************************ * so there is the issue? I need to solve this issue asap it took long time by now with no updates cause I want to make it auto update and not by manual update everything. * please advice * thanks Firas * Plugin Contributor [Venkat Raj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webulous/) * (@webulous) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-is-not-working-74/#post-10311780) * Hi Firas, * Would you mind sending your site WP login credentials to `vraj@updraftplus.com`?

I’m not sure which plugin altered the default behaviour of running `wp_version_check` every 12 hours to hourly recurrence. * I have fixed those things. It still (force updates) didn’t work. I suppose its because of large no. of cron jobs in queue. I hope it will be fine in few hours. * You can only delete pending cron jobs from database. If the problem persist, could you please send apache error log file? I can be accessed from your hosting account and provider can send it to you. * Thread Starter [firassameer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/firassameer/) * (@firassameer) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-is-not-working-74/#post-10324901) * Hi Venkat, * Please find the link below sent by my hosting support as per your request ..
