How to bulk Enable/Disable WordPress Auto Updates using cPFence Tools?

مرکز آموزش

Manage WP Auto Updates (WebUI Method)

Log into the cPFence WebUI and pick the server you want to manage from the Switch Server dropdown.
Open Tools & Utilities ➜ WP-AutoShield Bulk Tools.
If you only want to touch certain sites, enable Run on specific WordPress sites only and select them; otherwise leave it unchecked.
Choose Enable WP Auto Updates or Disable WP Auto Updates depending on the action you need.
Use the Component dropdown to select core, plugins, themes, translations, or all, then click the corresponding action button.
Stay on the output screen while the command runs so you can confirm each site completed successfully.

SSH into the target server.
Enable automatic updates for a component (replace plugins as needed):
```
cpfence --enable-wp-auto-updates plugins
```
Disable automatic updates with the complementary flag when you need to roll back automation:
```
cpfence --disable-wp-auto-updates plugins
```
Use all to change every component in one shot, or run individual commands for granular control.

Remember to turn off the autoshield_updates setting in System Settings if you no longer want WP-AutoShield to reapply the automatic updates daily.
