Pressable Cache Management — Developer Notes

GitHub Auto-Updates

This plugin uses YahnisElsts/plugin-update-checker v5.6 to deliver automatic updates directly from GitHub to WordPress sites running the plugin.

The library is already bundled at includes/plugin-update-checker/ — no Composer or manual steps needed. Only the files required for GitHub plugin updates are included (32 files). Excluded: DebugBar UI, Theme update support, BitBucket/GitLab APIs.


How to release an update

  1. Bump Version: in pressable-cache-management.php — e.g. 5.2.4
  2. Update the readme.txt changelog
  3. Commit and push to main
  4. In GitHub → Releases → Draft a new release
  5. Tag: v5.2.4 (with the v prefix, matching the version number)
  6. Attach the plugin .zip as a release asset
  7. Publish

WordPress sites detect the new version within ~12 hours and show the standard update notice. Clicking it installs exactly like a wordpress.org plugin.
