disable wordpress auto-upgrade

I would suggest that you disable the new auto-update feature wprdpress has coded in.

To do this add the following line to wp-config.php

define( 'WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', false );

This way only a manual upgrade as it should be is done.

Is there a reason that upgrades from within Wordpress don't work with Virtualmin though?

Not so far but it could happen and its just a suggestion.

So I took a closer look at this, and that setting is used for background wordpress updates, which I don't think we want enabled in Virtualmin. So I will implement your suggestion.

Good.. I haven't found a issue yet after waiting for a few upgrades inside wordpress but doing 2 upgrades on the same version could cause a future issue which is why I suggested this. I am glad you thought the same.
