Automatic updates (Auto-update)

The theme supports self-hosted automatic updates: when a new version is available on phatdev.net, WordPress shows an update notice right in the admin - one click and you're done, with no manual file download.

Requirement: set a license key

This feature only works when the site has a license key. Open the site's wp-config.php file and add this line:

define( 'HP_UPDATE_LICENSE', 'HPLIC-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' );
  • The key is issued by Hưng Phát specifically for your domain name (one key per site).
  • Place it above the line /* That's all, stop editing! */.
  • Without a key, the feature switches itself off (safe, no errors).

Check and update

  1. Go to Dashboard → Updates, or Appearance → Themes.
  2. If a new version exists, WordPress shows "New version available".
  3. Click Update now - the system downloads the new version from phatdev.net (SHA-256 signed, license checked against the domain) and safely installs over the old one.

The Updates page in WordPress

How it works (summary)

  • WordPress asks phatdev.net "is there a new version?" (sending the key + domain). The server checks the license and returns the latest version + a download link.
  • The information is cached for 6 hours, and refreshed automatically after an update completes.
  • Your data and settings are not affected - only the source code is replaced.

Not seeing the update notice? Check that: (1) HP_UPDATE_LICENSE is set correctly; (2) the key is still valid for the right domain; (3) wait for the 6-hour cache to expire, or go to Dashboard → Updates and click Check again. If it still doesn't work, update manually by following the Manual installation article.
