Issues

Please log issues on the GitHub at https://github.com/afragen/git-updater/issues

If you are using a WordPress Multisite installation, the plugin should be network activated.

When first downloading and installing a plugin from GitHub you might have to do the following, otherwise the next update may not be able to cleanup after itself and re-activate the updated plugin or theme. Or you can just use the remote install feature and this will be done for you. 😉

1. Unzip the archive.
2. Fix the folder name to remove to extra stuff GitHub adds to the download, like -master.
3. Copy the folder to your plugins directory or re-zip folder and add from plugins page.

Pull Requests

Pull requests are welcome. Please fork and submit pull requests against the develop branch.

Lovingly crafted with VS Code.
