Can I custom the check period? how?

YahnisElsts commented 1 year ago

You can pass a custom check period to the buildUpdateChecker method as the 4th argument, after the slug:

$myUpdateChecker = PucFactory::buildUpdateChecker(
    'https://example.com/path/to/details.json',
    __FILE__, //Full path to the main plugin file or functions.php.
    'unique-plugin-or-theme-slug',
    48 // <-- Check every 48 hours.
);

You could also set it to 0 to disable automatic update checks and then set up your own schedule (e.g. using a cron job) that calls $myUpdateChecker->checkForUpdates().
