There are two ways to set your websites to wait for the next version of a particular plugin (instead of updating to the current one): in bulk across multiple sites, or on a site-by-site basis.
Step 1
Login to your Glow account.
Step 2
Once logged in, click on Tasks
from the main left hand menu.
Step 3
The Tasks
screen will load the WordPress
tab from the inner menu automatically. Click on the Plugins
tab from the inner menu.
Step 4
Across the top of the Plugins
screen, you will notice that the page has loaded on the By plugin
tab by default.
(If you want to perform this action on a site-by-site basis, move down to Step 8 below).
In order to use the Wait
function, there first needs to be an update available – otherwise there is nothing to wait for.
You will notice that the available updates are represented in different information bars.
Step 5
To begin the Wait
process, click on the information bar for one of the plugins and the panel will expand.
Step 6
Click on the checkbox to the left of each of the websites that you would like to set to Wait
.
Having clicked on the checkboxes you will notice that the Wait
and Update
buttons in the bottom right corner of the panel are now clickable.
Click on the Wait
button.
Step 7
A few things will now happen:
- The websites that you selected will disappear
- The
WordPress
section of the client area for each of the websites you selected will now display a Waiting
note against the plugin on the Plugins
tab.
Step 8
If you instead want to perform the wait action on a site-by-site basis, you can do this from the Client Area or by clicking on the By client
tab across the top of the Tasks
screen:
