ACF Pro 6.3.11

Not really related to the beta, but it’s been a while since this version is available with no update from Themeco. Could version 6.3.11 be made available?

I thought I read somewhere that you guys were going to go to a weekly upate schedule for bundled 3rd party plugins like ACF Pro?

We are already bundling ACF Pro 6.3.11. Do you not see the update in your updates panel? How about when you deactivate ACF? We started updating plugins on Sunday every week.

Unfortunately not. Occasionally the WP Engine version shows up which you can’t update to. Can’t get your bundled version to show up on multiple sites.

It’s really odd, version 6.3.12 isn’t showing up for me which should be available since yesterday? Does anybody else experience update issues?

Atm acf pro plugin updates does not show in pro. The only way to get it updated on my end is to deactivate the plugin => delete it => reinstall it => then you get the new version…

Thanks @deranaloge for chiming in. So it’s not just me then.

Same for me. Been like that a while

I see it now. We had an extra space in our ACF version number. It should be fixed now. Let me know if you still have the issue.

Thanks Charlie, after your fix the update to 6.3.11 worked.

I see one more issue with the updates. The 6.3.12 update keeps popping up from WP Engine. Is there a way you can better suppress that? I’m constantly getting false positive update notices in the site management Hub where I manage updates from.

Is this in the Site Management hub plugin or in your dashboard? I would have to see how site management hub does this, it might look up version on their own.

It’s the Hub from WPMU DEV

We updated to 6.3.12 on Sunday. I have a feeling they check updates on their end if there is a full client portal they have. Can you ask them about that?

Sure, I asked them how their system checks for updates and this was their response:

Automate relies on your site to report available updates and in turn, the WPMU DEV Dashboard syncs with the Hub to report updates to Automate.

Basically, after there is an update reported on the site using the WordPress Standard Update Checks (https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/194030/how-wordpress-detects-a-plugin-update) the WPMU DEV Dashboard will pass on the data to the Hub of the update being available when it syncs.

This way the updates that are reported on your website WP Admin backend will be passed on to Automate.

They rely on WordPress itself to report any updates to core/plugins/themes.

I noticed that right after successfully updating to 6.3.12, WP Engine’s update was still showing in wp-admin:

This also happens when there’s an ACF update available but your bundled version isn’t ready yet. So the Hub rightfully sees an available update and fails the update when your copy isn’t available yet.
