can’t force my WP website to update

    I installed WP on my Synology NAS and it says that I already have the last version, 6.1.1, while the last one is 6.5.4.

    Also I get a message says “WordPress *will not* automatically update to new versions. So I think there’s a limit somewhere.

    I’ve installed your plugin, and it was complaining something about Cron disabled. So I added this text to my phpconfig file:

    define('DISABLE_WP_CRON', true);

    Now the plugin isn’t complaining anymore, but I can’t find a way to force an update.

    Any help?

    Thanks

  • Hi,

    Apologies for the delay

    Regarding the DISABLE_WP_CRON constant, are you sure by setting the constant value to true you’re no longer getting the warning message from Easy Updates Manager?, because I believe it should have been set to false instead of true. Anyway, to force an update you need to go to the Advanced tab and select the Force automatic updates menu from the left sidebar and then click the Force updates button

    Thanks

    Thanks for your answer Anthon, but I think the WP package that comes with Synology NAS is locked at 6.1.1 for a reason, due to all the relative software required to run it (Apache, MariaDB, etc.).

    I tried a 6.5.4 manual installation and, after that, nothing worked, so I’ve chosen an alternative solution (external hosting website).

    Thanks anyway. ??
