Research Description: WP Downgrade | Specific Core Version is a vital WordPress plugin that allows administrators to downgrade or update their WordPress Core to a specific release. Unlike the default WordPress update routine, which only installs the latest release, this plugin provides flexible control over Core updates, enabling users to remain on a previous secure version or selectively update to compatible releases. This is particularly useful for sites relying on plugins or themes that are not yet compatible with the latest WordPress release. By forcing WordPress to recognize a chosen version as the latest, WP Downgrade simplifies updates while maintaining compatibility and stability. With the new advanced option, users can manually adjust the download link, enabling tasks like language-specific core downloads or fetching releases from alternative sources—all without compromising security.
Affected versions: Min 1.2.6, max 1.2.6.
Status: SAFE & CERTIFIED
