    Hi,
    I use the “Update available” notification.

    First I would say, it’s a bit unfortunate, that you have no information in your e-mail notification. I really hoped to get a list of new available updates. But instead it’s just a generic message.

    But ok, let’s make this then a feature request, if you not mind.

    And you also manged to get multiple typos in this short message, you really should read your strings more carefully before publishing ^^
    And there seem to be more problems here, let’s see…

    The message:

    Hodwy! There are one or more plugin updates waiting on your WordPress site at https://domain.com but we& # 0 3 9 ;ve noticed that you& # 0 3 9 ;ve disabled auto-updating for

    Outdated re a security risk so please consider manually updating them via your dashboard.

    1. I dislike this “Howdy” in general, but at least you could write it correctly 😉
    2. I got in my mail the html-entities for the apostrophe “& # 0 3 9 ;” for the we& # 0 3 9 ;ve and you& # 0 3 9 ;ve. I added spaces as I do not know if they get parsed here in this message (so no spaces in the real message). Is this only for me or also a bug?
    3. “… disabled auto-updating for “. The first sentence has an open end.
    4. “Outdated re a security risk so” not sure where this is going? Maybe “Outdated plugins are a security risk, so”?

    Thanks and best regards.

    Hi, thanks for the report. First of all I’m a non-native speaker so I do my best to not make any typos 😉

    The “Update available” notification is indeed lacking some information such as a list but this is on my to-do list.

    1. I’m not a fan of the Howdy myself but WordPress uses this in a lot of places so I went and used it myself to make it match WordPress core behaviour. The typo is quite silly ofcourse so this is fixed now 😉
    2. This is the first time I’ve heard of this, but I’ll be sure to fix this!
    3. This was supposed to say plugins but something must have gone wrong, will make sure this gets fixed too.
    4. Same as 3
