Toggle Auto Updates for One Plugin (WebUI Method)
- Open the cPFence WebUI and select the server hosting the WordPress installs.
- Browse to Tools & Utilities ➜ WP-AutoShield Bulk Tools.
- Enter the Manage WP Plugins card and click either Enable One Plugin Auto Updates or Disable One Plugin Auto Updates.
- Type the plugin slug (for example
classic-editor) in the provided field. - Press the action button to apply the change across every detected WordPress site (or only the sites you selected with the site selector toggle).
cPFence immediately pushes the wp plugin auto-updates state to every site so the chosen plugin follows your policy server-wide.
Command Line (CLI) Method
- SSH into the server that holds the WordPress installations.
- Enable automatic updates for a plugin slug:
cpfence --enable-auto-updates-plugin "classic-editor" - Disable auto updates for the same plugin when needed:
cpfence --disable-auto-updates-plugin "classic-editor"
