After activation, you'll be able to choose an update channel:
2018-06-07 11:11:40 +00:00
1. Beta - Update to beta releases, RC, or stable, depending on what is newest.
2. Release Candidate - Update to RC releases or stable, depending on what is newest.
2018-06-07 11:11:40 +00:00
3. Stable - No beta updates. Default WordPress behavior.
These will surface pre-releases via automatic updates in WordPress. Updates will replace your installed version of WooCommerce.
2018-06-07 11:11:40 +00:00
**Note**, this will not check for updates on every admin page load unless you explicitly tell it to. You can do this by clicking the "Check Again" button from the WordPress updates screen or you can set the `WC_BETA_TESTER_FORCE_UPDATE` to true in your `wp-config.php` file.
2018-06-07 11:11:40 +00:00
You can get to the settings and features from your top admin bar under the name WC Beta Tester.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= Does this allow me to install multiple versions of WooCommerce at the same time?
2018-06-07 11:11:40 +00:00
No; updates will replace your currently installed version of WooCommerce. You can switch to any version from this plugin via the interface however.
2018-06-07 11:11:40 +00:00
= Where do updates come from? =
Updates are downloaded from the WordPress.org SVN repository where we tag prerelease versions specifically for this purpose.
2018-06-07 11:11:40 +00:00
= Does this rollback my data? =
This plugin does not rollback or update data on your store automatically.
Database updates are manually ran like after regular updates. If you downgrade, data will not be modified. We don't recommend using this in production.
