## Sharraxaad

Disables all automatic updates (core, plugins, themes, translations) and restricts
update visibility & access to admin account(s) chosen under Settings > Update Control.
Only selected admins can install plugins. No plugin — including this one — can deactivate
any other plugin. Plugin File Editor access is blocked for non-allowed users. All
other users — including other administrators not on the list — won’t see update 
nags, counts, or the Updates screen, and can’t trigger updates.

## Rakibaad

 1. Upload the `selective-update-control` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to Settings > Update Control to configure which administrator accounts should
    retain update access.

## SBI

### Does this plugin disable all updates?

Yes, it disables all automatic background updates (core, plugins, themes, and translations)
globally.

### Who can access update settings?

Only the administrators selected in the plugin settings can see or manage update
options.

If you manage websites with multiple admin users, this plugin is a lifesaver. It
prevents accidental updates by restricting update access to selected users. Clean,
lightweight, and does exactly what it should.
