Premium Update Gate Documentation

How to install, license and configure Premium Update Gate, review held plugin updates, use the WP-CLI commands and extend the gate with hooks.

Premium Update Gate inspects every update to a premium, commercial or custom plugin before its files replace the installed copy, holds risky updates for your approval, and watches for plugins that hide themselves or change without an update. These pages take you from installation and license activation to reviewing a held update, tuning the settings and automating the gate with WP-CLI.
