Auto update all minor versions not working

    Dear support,

    I use this plugin on several sites to have a better control of WordPress updates: “Enable all updates” is turned on, “Auto update all minor versions” is checked and everything else is set to disabled. The problem is that WordPress will not update from 5.4.0 to 5.4.1 no matter what, even after triggering “Force automatic updates”. Interestingly, after checking “Auto update all releases”, the update from 5.4.0 to 5.4.1 instantly works.

    Auto update all minor versions is thus either broken or it doesn’t really do what people expect it to do.

    Best regards,
    Andrej

    Hi,

    Thanks for the info.

    Can you please confirm that this happens to all of your websites?
    Meanwhile, we will try and test it on our end to see if we can replicate the issue.

    Thanks,

    Hello,

    thank you for your reply. I have re-checked the rest of the sites via WP-CLI and discovered a few interesting things:

    – the sites are actually on the 5.3 branch
    – the site that had “working minor auto updates” in OP actually updated from 5.3.2 to 5.4.1, and not from 5.4.0 to 5.4.1
    – the rest of the sites were updated from 5.3.2 to 5.3.3 so there is actually nothing wrong with the plugin

    All of this confusion was caused by “WordPress 5.4.1 is available! Please update now.” core message in dashboard, which made me think the sites are on the 5.4 branch.

    IMHO this message should not be shown (or should at least be configurable) if updates are managed by “Easy Updates Manager”, the “Auto update all minor versions” is turned on and the site is on the most recent version of the installed branch.

    I apologize for my misdiagnosis of the situation and am marking this thread as resolved.
