## Skildring

This plugin disables all WordPress updates (core, plugins and themes). This can 
be useful if you have multiple environments such as a live and staging server and
you don’t want your users to use the update functionality.

This plugin not only disables the update mechanism for the core, plugins and themes,
but it also removes the update menu item from the left navigation menu in the admin
dashboard.

## Installasjon

 1. Unzip the zip file and upload the folder to the `wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the «Plugins» menu in WordPress.

### I am not sure what this plugin does, should I be using it?

No, keeping WordPress up-to-date is very important for security reasons. You should
only disable WordPress updates if you keep your system up to date using another 
mechanism such as a staging server or svn.

### Can I submit a feature request or bug report?

Yes, please use the [support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/disable-updates/)
to report any issues you may have. You can submit code suggestions in the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/vanderwijk/disable-updates).

This plugin does what is says but it doesn’t give any choosing option at all. I 
don’t want to disable updates for all plugins. Found this plugin which provides 
more flexibility disabling core, updates, and as well gives options to choose for
blocking specific plugin updates.https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-email-notification-

Using `add_filter ( 'pre_site_transient_update_core', '__return_null' );` slowed
