详情介绍:
Frozzer is a free WordPress update control plugin that lets you disable or freeze WordPress core, plugin, and theme updates — globally with one click, or for the individual plugins and themes you choose. It is built for agencies, developers, and site owners who want to decide exactly when updates happen instead of letting them run automatically.
Automatic updates can break a live site without warning. Frozzer puts you back in control: test updates on a staging site first, then apply them to production when you are ready — not when WordPress decides.
New in 1.1.0

- Client sites — review and test updates before applying, and reduce emergency support calls.
- Install and activate Frozzer.
- Open the Frozzer dashboard.
- Choose your mode: freeze everything globally, or freeze only specific plugins and themes.
- Watch the admin-bar indicator for your current status (ON / OFF / Mixed).
- Enable updates again whenever you are ready.
wp frozzer status — view the current state
wp frozzer freeze core — disable core updates
wp frozzer freeze plugin <plugin-file> — freeze a single plugin (for example, akismet/akismet.php)
wp frozzer freeze theme <theme-slug> — freeze a single theme
wp frozzer freeze all — disable core, plugin, and theme updates at once
wp frozzer unfreeze core — re-enable core updates
wp frozzer unfreeze all — re-enable core, plugin, and theme updates at once
wp frozzer list — list all frozen items
A frozen item is removed from WordPress's update list, so it will not update from the dashboard, from automatic updates, or from a standard bulk update such as wp plugin update --all. To update a frozen item, unfreeze it first (from the dashboard or with wp frozzer unfreeze).

常见问题:
What does Frozzer do?
Frozzer lets you disable WordPress core, plugin, and theme updates — globally or for individual items. It is ideal for staging sites, client sites, and any controlled update workflow.
How do I disable plugin updates in WordPress?
Install and activate Frozzer, open the dashboard, and turn off plugin updates with a single toggle. To stop only one plugin, keep updates enabled globally and freeze that plugin on the Plugins & Themes screen.
How do I stop a single plugin from updating?
Keep updates enabled globally, open the Plugins & Themes screen, and freeze the specific plugin. Everything else keeps updating normally.
How do I disable automatic updates?
Frozzer disables auto-updates for anything you freeze. Frozen core, plugins, and themes will not auto-update even if WordPress auto-updates are turned on.
Will it break my site?
No. Frozzer uses WordPress's standard update filters and does not modify any core files. Your site keeps working normally.
Is it safe to disable updates?
Only if you have another update workflow in place (a staging site, WP-CLI, hosting tools, and so on). Frozzer shows a security reminder for exactly this reason.
Can I freeze one plugin while others keep updating?
Yes. Enable updates globally, then freeze specific items on the Plugins & Themes screen.
How do I freeze a theme?
You have three options: open Appearance → Themes and click "Freeze" on any theme card, use the Frozzer → Plugins & Themes screen, or run wp frozzer freeze theme <theme-slug>. Frozen themes are skipped by updates until you unfreeze them.
Does it block WP-CLI updates too?
Yes, for frozen items. Because Frozzer removes a frozen item from WordPress's update list, it is skipped by automatic updates and by standard commands such as wp plugin update --all. Unfreeze the item (from the dashboard or with wp frozzer unfreeze) when you want to update it.
Does it work on multisite?
Frozzer stores its settings per site, so it works on an individual site within a network. Network-wide (super admin) controls are planned for a future release and are not officially tested yet.
What is the admin-bar indicator?
A status badge in the top toolbar, visible to administrators, that shows your current update state: Updates ON (everything enabled), OFF (everything disabled), or Mixed (a partial freeze). The dropdown breaks it down by Core, Plugins, and Themes.
Can I see the change history?
Yes. The Activity Log shows the last 30 days of changes (up to 200 entries), with the item, the type, and the user who made each change.
Does it slow down my site?
No. The impact is minimal, and Frozzer only loads in the admin area.
Is there a pro version?
No. Frozzer is 100% free with every feature included. There are no upsells.
