[Support request] Stop “Some plugins were automatically updated” emails

[Fai]

Hi, I’ve been receiving “Some plugins were automatically updated” emails every single day. I saw some websites suggesting adding codes to the functions.php file, however, I saw at the top of the functions.php file that GeneratePress does not recommend this and I should do it “in a child theme”.

Can anyone guide me on how this can be done please? Thank you in advance!

Hi Fai,

Theme’s functions.php file will be overwritten when the theme gets updated, so your changes will get erased.

If you just want to add some PHP code to your site, you don’t have to install a child theme, you can use a plugin like code snippet.
