This is a deal breaker feature for me. Is there any information when this will be released

When should we expect this to be released? Within the 1st half of 2025?
Russ Michaels
please make sure multiple schedules can be created, so some sites can use the safe update, some us ethe advanced safe update etc.
Also to send email on failure rather than rely on us logging in and look through notifications.

Aurelio Volle Excellent news! Thank you!

Aurelio, will we be able to set a variation detection so items are automatically rolled back if it's over the set amount of percentage difference?
Also, how will we be able to throttle activity so a server with multiple sites is not bogged down? Is there a plan for that?
Aurelio Volle
John Bendever, Jr. this should be mitigated by the way our workers are working. But thanks for the heads up!

Yes, this is very important. Auto-updates would be great, and the ability to time them is equally as important too. For example, I have backups daily to sometimes up to 4 times daily from my hosting platform which I manage, and they are scheduled at certain times. It'd be great if I had the ability to schedule the updates to occur after my platform backups are completed. So let's say for example the backup is at 6:00 AM Pacific Time, I'd like to schedule the updates at 6:30 AM or even at 6:15 AM so that it is close to when the platform backup is finished.

This is a deal breaker for me: it's the only reason I'm not migrating my sites from ManageWP.
Aurelio Volle
Tommaso Baldovino how would you like to schedule your update if you had a magic stick?
Tommaso Baldovino
Aurelio Volle I’d like to be able to set the update frequency (daily, weekly, monthly, also choosing the time of the day), and if the update should be done immediately without any check or after a site backup with a status check after the “safe update”. Obviously I’d like to choose which plugins and themes auto-update, as for the core WP files.
Thank you!

Tommaso Baldovino Everything Tommaso said is also what I would like, ideally. It needs to be more configurable and controllable than the default autoupdate in WordPress so we can account for exceptions and be "in the office" at the hours of the day the updates occur, or else sites are risked and the value of WP Umbrella is lost.

I was looking to start setting this up for my sites today — for some reason I thought it was already implemented! Currently we have most plugins set to auto-update, except ones particularly prone to breaking things, but this results in "Temporarily unavailable for scheduled maintenance" messages at random times. I want to be able to schedule updates for early in the morning, with "Safe Update" enabled for those especially sensitive plugins.

Can't wait for it.

This will be an absolute banger !
But you need to enable safe-update for auto-update too to prevent breaking sites.
