Pressable provides a weekly report of sites that need theme and plugin updates.

This is an opt-in feature and can be enabled by an account owner here: <https://my.pressable.com/settings/sites>

![WordPress plugin and theme update report settings](https://i0.wp.com/pressable.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/theme-plugin-update-report.png?resize=860%2C370&ssl=1)## Choosing When to Receive the Report

By default, the weekly Plugin & Theme Update Report is sent on its usual **Sunday-night** schedule.

You can choose a specific day and time for the report to be sent.

On the **Sites** tab of **Settings**, find the **Plugin and Theme Updates Report** section. Beneath the notification email field:

1. Select **Send on a specific day and time**.
2. Choose a **Report Day**.
3. Choose a **Report Time**. (The available report time is in **UTC**.)
4. The report will be sent weekly on the selected day and time.

## Plugin and Theme Actions

Pressable enables you to [manage your WordPress plugins and themes](https://pressable.com/knowledgebase/wordpress-plugin-and-theme-actions-through-mypressable-control-panel/) directly within the MyPressable Control Panel (MPCP). You can refresh the list, update, activate, and deactivate plugins and themes using this feature that’s accessible to all users.

## Plugin Management

Pressable also provides a [plugin management tool](https://pressable.com/knowledgebase/managing-your-wordpress-plugins-on-pressable/) to help keep your sites updated. The [plugin management](https://pressable.com/knowledgebase/managing-your-wordpress-plugins-on-pressable/) functionality doesn’t work with some premium theme and plugins (due to licensing issues). The Plugin & Theme update report can work well to catch any premium products that may not have been updated by the [plugin management](https://pressable.com/knowledgebase/managing-your-wordpress-plugins-on-pressable/) functionality.
