Overview
WP Updates Notifier is a WordPress plugin designed to monitor your WordPress installation for updates to the core, plugins, and themes, and notify you via email when updates are available. This is particularly useful for users who do not frequently log in to the admin dashboard or manage client websites. Key features include customizable intervals for update checks (hourly, twice daily, or daily), notifications for active themes and plugins only, and the option to remove upgrade nag messages for non-admin users. Advanced users can utilize various filters and actions to customize email subjects and content. The plugin, which is a fork of Update Notifier, offers enhanced functionalities such as improved code practices, more frequent update checks, customizable email settings, and active support and development. Additionally, it supports multiple languages, including French and German.

A unique plugin of its kind but which I consider very useful and fundamental if you have to manage many websites (as in my case) in order to have a “memory” of the plugins to be updated!
EXCELLENT!

It’s ok for theme and plugins notifications, but notification about core updates does’t work for more than one year!
This plugin probably won’t recieve an update anymore.

Simple, no excess fluff. I like the email notifications, points to Details, Changelog on each plugin, states compatibility.
Thanks
