Woo commerce forced updates repeatedly breaking site

    Our site, Sassy Sale (http://www.sassysale.com) is set up with a group buying functionality. Every time WooCommerce does an upgrade (which we NEVER manually do ourselves – it is imposed on us), it totally breaks the site. It is extremely frustrating, as our developer costs USD175 an hour to fix, for something which we have zero control over. Please can you advise if there is ANY way to opt-out of forced upgrades?

    This is not true. WooCommerce does not do forced updates. It is always manual.

    None of our team have the Woocommerce username and password required to do the updates, so I’d love to know how you think this is happening.

    Not sure what you mean by WooCommerce username/password as that is not what is required to update WooCommerce. To update WooCommerce, you just need to login to WordPress site with administrator access or an account that can update plugins ( if you have custom capability plugin ).

    @royho:in certain cases the plugins as well as the WP can be automatically updated (ex:if the option was previously checked in Softaculous).
    @hestera: if you’re hosted in a shared environment take a look into your control panel for Softaculous or Fantastico and you’d probably find such settings there. If not fond then ask the webmaster to stop updating it if is not the same guy with the one who fixes it 🙂

    @ehr – sure hosting could do this on their side but WooCommerce itself does not do this.
