Why won’t my plugin update in WP Managify?

Do you have a plugin on your WordPress site that resists updating through WP Managify? Don’t worry, we explain why this might be happening and how you can fix it.

Common reasons why a plugin won’t update

• Plugin’s own updater: Some plugins have their own update system integrated into the WordPress interface. This means they prefer to manage their updates independently and not through the standard WordPress updater or external tools like WP Managify.
• Paid license: If the plugin has a PRO license, you likely need an active one to access updates. Without this license, the update system will block any attempt to renew the plugin until it is validated.
• Manual Update Only : Certain plugins don’t support automatic updates. In this case, you’ll need to download the latest version from the plugin provider and upload it manually.
• Connection Issues: If WP Managify can’t connect properly to your website, updates may fail. Try reconnecting your site in WP Managify.
• Version Conflicts: Occasionally, a plugin update might be blocked due to compatibility issues with your WordPress version, PHP version, or another plugin.
• Insufficient Permissions: Make sure the user account connected with WP Managify has administrator rights to perform updates.

Resolve the issue

• For plugins with their own updater: Access your site’s WordPress interface and look for the specific plugin’s section. Usually, you’ll find an update option within its settings or its own control panel.
• For paid plugins: Ensure your license is active and correctly configured. You may need to enter the license code in the plugin settings within WordPress or renew your subscription if it has expired.
• Reconnect your website in WP Managify if the problem continues.
