Disabling Automatic WordPress Updates Without Using a Plugin

1. Access the WordPress site's root directory through an FTP client or file manager.

2. Locate and open the wp-config.php file in the root directory using a text editor.

3. Insert the following line of code just before the line that says "/ That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. /":

define( 'AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED', true );

1. Save the changes to the wp-config.php file.

2. Upload the modified wp-config.php file back to the server, overwriting the existing one if necessary.

Disabling automatic updates is now implemented on the WordPress site.
