Where Softaculous - for the end user - has "Advanced Options" for the "install" available for updates and backups, are these always only referring to having Softaculous itself perform these features?

For example, for Wordpress, the description is clear that the backup option here refers to Softaculous making backups, and is not related to any WP built-in option to make backups. But the options for updates are unclear (to me) as to whether it is configuring Softaculous to perform updates automatically ---OR--- is it going ahead and configuring some basic options within WP's own functionality for you as it installs?

It is important that user's should be aware that in most cases, they should probably only CHOOSE ONE of Softaculous or WP or a plugin to handle such features and not enable duplicate/conflicts.

Is this making Softaculous update the version, themes, and plugins OR is it setting these options within the wordpress admin for you ?

Hi,

The advanced options will perform the actions by Softaculous and will not make any changes to WordPress or any other script.

1. Auto Upgrade : This will upgrade the installation when a new version of the script is published by Softaculous and the same is downloaded on your server via CRON.
2. Auto Upgrade WordPress Plugins : Whenever the installation is upgraded via Softaculous i.e. auto upgrade or if the script is upgraded from Softaculous GUI it will check updates for all plugins enabled and will update the outdated ones.
3. Auto Upgrade WordPress Themes : Whenever the installation is upgraded
via Softaculous i.e. auto upgrade or if the script is upgraded from
Softaculous GUI it will check updates for the active theme and will
update the outdated one.
4. Automated Backups : This will add a cron job in you control panel account which will initiate the Softaculous CLI backup utility to backup your installation.

Please let us know if you have any questions.
