What changed since 1.3.3:

  • Updates show up within hours of a release. WordPress only knows about plugin and theme updates from its last check with WordPress.org. WP-Cron runs that check twice a day, or never on sites where cron doesn't run, such as a site behind a password, or one with DISABLE_WP_CRON and no system cron. Now, when Spottlab asks for its hourly report and WordPress's last check is more than two hours old, the plugin has WordPress check again first, as Dashboard → Updates does.
  • A failed check doesn't affect the report. If WordPress.org can't be reached, Spottlab still gets the same plugin and theme versions and the updates WordPress already knew about. It also gets the reason the check failed and the time the list last came in. The check gets ten seconds at most, and nothing Spottlab sends can make it run more often.

Sites on 1.3.0 or later update from the Plugins page as usual. Older ones take this one by hand: download spottlab-connector.zip below and upload it under Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin.
