內容簡介

本外掛可讓你從自己的 WordPress 網站上提供外掛更新。換句話說，它提供外掛更新的可用性和下載服務，就像 WordPress.org 的外掛儲存庫一樣。無論是免費外掛或授權外掛，它都包括完整的授權管理器（並且提供使用它的免費課程）。

自 2013 年以來，此外掛更新伺服器一直爲付費版本的 UpdraftPlus 備份/還原/克隆 WordPress 插件（以及其他 Team Updraft 和 Simba Hosting 外掛）的數百萬的用戶提供外掛更新。此外，還提供了為 WooCommerce 的付費連接器，使 WordPress 在購買時自動分配和續訂許可證，以及其他優惠券和續訂電子郵件的功能。

此外掛的功能包括：管理多個免費和付費外掛，管理外掛使用者的許可證，為授權的外掛發送續訂提醒電子郵件，為您的外掛提供多個不同的 ZIP（即不同的外掛版本），以及複雜規則，以決定向特定使用者提供哪個 ZIP。此外，它還提供了外掛計數下載（按版本計算，以獲得您的活躍用戶數），以及用於在您的網站上顯示可用外掛和外掛更改日誌的短代碼。此外，它還包括 WP-CLI 的命令，以匯入新的 ZIP 和更新外掛支持的 WordPress 版本。

使用此外掛可以提供外掛更新和許可服務的兩個重要部分。您還需要在您的外掛中添加代碼，以指向該更新伺服器。可在此處找到用於此目的的流行課程：https://github.com/YahnisElsts/plugin-update-checker。對於授權的外掛，可以在此處找到兼容的課程：https://github.com/DavidAnderson684/simba-plugin-manager-updater。

原文外掛簡介

This plugin enables you to host updates for plugins from your own WordPress site.
i.e. It provides a service for the availability and download of WordPress plugin updates – just like the wordpress.org plugin repository. This can be for free plugins, or licensed plugins – it includes a full licence manager (and a free class for using it is available).
This is the plugin updates server that has been providing millions of plugin updates to the users of the paid versions of the UpdraftPlus backup/restore/clone WordPress plugin since 2013 (and various other Team Updraft and Simba Hosting plugins).
A paid connector for WooCommerce is also available, allowing WordPress to automatically assign and renew licences when purchases are made; plus other features for coupons and renewal emails (including pre-filled carts); follow this link for more information.
The best way to get a feel for its features is to take a look at the available screenshots.
Features

Manage multiple plugins, both free and paid

Manage user licences – create, renew and delete licence entitlements for non-free plugins

Send renewal reminder emails for licensed plugins

Have multiple different zips (i.e. different plugin versions) available for your plugins

Have sophisticated rules for which zip a particular user gets delivered (e.g. send them an older version if they are on an old version of WordPress or PHP)

Counts plugin downloads, by version – calculate how many active users you have

Shortcode provided for showing users on your website what plugins are available

Shortcode provided for showing plugin changelogs (automatically read from the plugin zip)

Data is included in WordPress’s privacy tools’ output (export / delete)

Import a new zip via WP-CLI: wp plugins-manager import-zip –file=”/path/to/file.zip” –user=”your-WP-user” –add-rule

Update plugins’ supported WordPress versions via WP-CLI:

wp plugins-manager update-versions –user=”WordPress-username-or-email-or-id” –slug=”plugin-slug” –tested-version=”version-number(x.y.z)”

Or

wp plugins-manager update_versions –user=”WordPress-username-or-email-or-id” –current-wp-version=”version-number(x.y.z)” –tested-version=”version-number(x.y.z)”

Running an updates and an licensing server are two important parts of providing plugin updates to your users. You will also need to add code in your plugin to point towards that updates server. A popular class used for this purpose with free plugins, that requires you to do nothing more than include it and tell it the updates URL, is available here: https://github.com/YahnisElsts/plugin-update-checker . For licenced plugins, a compatible class is available here: https://github.com/DavidAnderson684/simba-plugin-manager-updater .
Other information

Privacy: The plugin does not contact any remote services. It also integrates with WordPress’s privacy tools (4.9.6+) for export/deletion, and removes user data when users are deleted.
