Phantom update status

  • Hi

    WP constantly gives me the red circle indicating an update needed, and has done for the last 3 weeks.. But no updates are needed. No other issues on the site.

    Any ideas? I’ve purged the cache so it’s not that.

    Thanks

    Gerard

  • Hello @abisti,
    It sounds like you might be experiencing a stuck update notification, which can sometimes happen due to database inconsistencies or plugin conflicts. Here are a few things you can try:

    1. Go to Dashboard > Updates and click “Check Again” to refresh the update status.
    2. Clear the object cache if you’re using a caching plugin that includes object caching.
    3. Try disabling all plugins, then check the update status, and re-enable them.
    4. Make sure your theme doesn’t need updates, as that could trigger the notification as well.

    Thanks asif, it turned out to be the WP Forms plugin, which has been causing other problems too. We’re onto their support.
