Update to 4.53 not available yet???

[RTRdesign]

Hello there,
I did not receive the update to 4.53. I followed the codecanyon forum and saw that there should be an update. When I click the check for update button for the HMWP plugin it says that it is up to date! I have locally downloaded the 4.53 edition. What is the best procedure to update the plugin and keep al my settings.
Thanks!

Got Answer in codecanyon comment section :

I found a small bug which disable automatic update in some versions.

4.511 is not valid number for plugin updater: So you simply need to change that to something lower (e.g. 4.5 or 4.4) just open plugin editor find hide-my-wp.php and change that number which is located at the top of the file.

Then go to Dashboard > Update > Check to see new version!

Thanks

yes, auto update won’t work if you have HMWP version like 4.511 or 4.521. You’ll need to follow the steps as mentioned above by ibergag. Also you can opt for manual update.

– first goto HMWP > Start tab and do “Export current settings” – save it somewhere.
– download latest HMWP version, and delete hide_my_wp plugin folder from /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
– using FTP/cpanel upload latest hide_my_wp plugin folder to /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
– goto website backend and activate HMWP plugin.
– goto HMWP > Start tab and import settings (from previously saved settings)
