=== One Click Plugin Updater === Contributors: whiteshadow Tags: plugins, maintenance, update, upgrade, update notification, automation Requires at least: 2.3 Tested up to: 2.3 Stable tag: 1.0.2 Adds an "update automatically" link to plugin update notifications and lets you update plugins with a single click. == Description == This plugin extends the plugin update notification feature introduced in WordPress 2.3 by adding an "update automatically" link to update notifications. When you click the link, the new version of the corresponding plugin is downloaded and installed automatically. **How It Works (In Detail)** To be able to display the new link this plugin will hide the original update notification and display a slightly modified one. Here's what happens when you click the "update automatically" link : 1. If the plugin that needs to be updated is active, it is deactivated. 1. The Plugin Updater retrieves the plugin's page from Wordpress.org and finds the download link. 1. The new version is downloaded and extracted to the wp-content/plugins directory (this directory must be writable by the Updater plugin). 1. If necessary, the updated plugin is re-activated. All this happens in the background, so if everything works OK you'll end up back at the "Plugins" tab. If there are any errors the updater will display an error message and abort the upgrade.
