## Description

This plugin is for you if you don’t look inside of your Admin Panel every day (for
example you have tens of wordpress installations) but still want to have wordpress
up to date. After installation plugin will check every day if newer version of wordpress
is available and if yes, will send email to blog’s admin with notification.

## Installation

 1. Like every plugin, download zip file
 2. Upload to /wp-content/plugins
 3. Activate it.
 4. Wait for notifications 😉

## FAQ

  Newer version of wordpress is available but I don’t get emails

Check your spam folder in email account

  I’ve got newest version but plugin sends me notifications, which says that i have
installed wordpress in strange version ‘abc’

This is caused by plugin WP Security Scan. Deactivate it or look into its code and
deacctivate this place, which changes variable $wp_version into string ‘abc’.
