XML-RPC Update Check
v0.1 · by trogau
This plugin provides XML-RPC methods for checking the update status of WordPress websites.
About this plugin
You can query core, plugin, and themes individually, or check all at once.
It defines four new methods:
- xmlrpcCoreUpdateCheck – checks core, returns true/false
- xmlrpcPluginUpdateCheck – checks plugins, returns true/false
- xmlrpcThemeUpdateCheck – checks themes, returns true/false
- xmlrpcUpdatesCheck – checks all of the above, returns an array of trues/falses.
The plugin was created primarily for WPUpCheck (http://trog.qgl.org/wpupcheck/), a simple
Windows application that remotely polls a WordPress site to see if updates are available.
