I have Softaculous set to auto upgrade Wordpress on all of my sites. With Wordpress 5.0 coming soon, I'd like to change this setting from "upgrade to any latest version available" to "upgrade to minor versions only". Because I have a couple dozen sites, I'd like to control this via WHM instead of setting it in each cPanel account.
I've gone into WHM's Softaculous settings and changed the setting for "Force Auto Upgrade preference for users' installations" to "Upgrade to Minor versions only". I assumed that this would affect all of my existing accounts, but if I log in to an individual cPanel account, the setting is still set to "Upgrade to any latest version available (Major as well as Minor)"
Can someone please clarify whether forcing preferences on user installations should affect existing installations, and if so, why it doesn't seem to be working? Thanks!
