    Love the Litespeed cache, but for one client, I have an issue, that it never shows available plugin updates for the Litespeed cache plugin.

    Even when using wp plugin update litespeed-cache I always have to specify --version=6.5.1 for example to get the update. All other plugins update normally. It started right before version 6.4.1.

    what does it show in wp-admin/plugins.php page ?

    maybe it was not linked to the wordpress.org repo but 3rd party custom repo ?

    It didn’t show any available updates on wp-admin/plugins.php for the Litespeed Cache plugin, just a few others. It said Version 6.4.1, but I saw a notice on top of the admin about a Litespeed Cache update. So I tried:

    • Force refresh the available updates in wp-admin
    • Run wp plugin update litespeed-cache (result: plugin already updated)
    • Run wp plugin update litespeed-cache --version=6.5.1

    Installing LiteSpeed Cache (6.5.1)
    Downloading installation package from https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/litespeed-cache.6.5.1.zip…
    Unpacking the package…
    Installing the plugin…
    Removing the old version of the plugin…
    Plugin updated successfully.
    Success: Purged all caches successfully.
    Success: Installed 1 of 1 plugins.

    So this worked, but I was wondering if there is an issue somewhere. I have a few other installations with the same hosting company (cyon.ch) and the plugin seems to update just fine besides this install.

    Does the client have some plugins that manage updates?
    Or custom code to disable updates, something like: https://stackoverflow.com/a/23769141

    @qtwrk I don’t know what it showed, now it does show 6.5.1 and Active.

    @litetim no, I built the site and no such things are installed or in custom code. I’ll export the Litespeed Cache settings, remove the plugin and install it again. Closing this for now, as it’s not a big deal and I can update, and the cache is working perfectly fine.
