    That’s an interesting point of view… What do you think is the difference between fewer releases with more changes, and more releases with fewer changes? Would you rather we wait weeks to release dozens of changes and bug fixes like most plugins? If you prefer to install updates only once a month or so, why don’t you do that?

    Have you compared our Changelog with that of other plugins (that release new versions based on your preferred schedule)? You’ll notice that our updates have fewer changes. A lot fewer. If you read the Changelog, you will also taken note of our philosophy about changes:

    New versions of the plugin are released approximately every week (more or less). New features are added, tested, and released incrementally, instead of grouping them together in a major version release. When minor bugs fixes and/or code improvements are applied, new versions are also released. This release schedule keeps the code stable and reliable, at the cost of more frequent updates.

    FYI – You can define the following in your wp-config.php file to manage the update check schedule. This new feature will be supported in the upcoming NGFB UM v1.4.0 update.

    define( 'NGFBUM_CHECK_HOURS', 168 ); // weekly update checks

    In the future, if you have an issue or concern, please open a ticket so we can address it in a more positive manner. I personally don’t think frequent updates are a bad thing, and certainly — in my opinion — do not warrant a 1-star (aka “awful / non-functional plugin”) review.

    Are you still experiencing issues with the update frequency? A while back the Update Manager was updated to allow for flexible update check schedules, which should address the issue you raised. ??

    Any update on this? Is your experience with the plugin still 1 star?
