 * I am running wordpress on an internal server .. but it is still showing that 
   I have updates ( wordpress and themes ) that I need to install.
 * I do not need to install these updates and if I do I will do it manually.
 * How can I fix this so it does not check for updates at all?
 * I already added this to wp-config but it didnt help it is still checking for 
   updates.
 *     ```
       define( 'AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED', true );
       define( 'WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', false );
       ```
   
 * thanks
