OutPlug helps WordPress site owners:

Detect plugins that haven’t been updated in a configurable number of months.
Highlight outdated plugins in the admin plugin list.
Display stale plugins in a dashboard widget with a red exclamation mark.

Časté otázky

Does OutPlug update plugins automatically?: No. OutPlug only monitors plugin updates and alerts the admin. Updating plugins is still a manual or automatic WordPress process.
Can I change how many months before a plugin is considered stale?: Yes. Either use the settings page under Tools > OutPlug or create a config file (outplug-config.php) with 'stale_months' => X.
Does OutPlug send emails?: It can. Enable the Send email alerts option in the settings or via the config file 'send_emails' => true.
