README

Small MU-plugin that disables specific WordPress Site Health checks for projects managed with Composer.

Features

• Disables the Background Updates Site Health test which is unnecessary in Composer-managed deployments.

Installation

Install dependencies and project packages with Composer:

composer require curtistinkers/disable-wp-health-checks-composer

The package is a Composer wordpress-muplugin type; how it is installed into mu-plugins depends on your project installer configuration.

There is no runtime configuration — the plugin runs when loaded and filters the site_status_tests hook.

Usage

No runtime configuration is required. The plugin unsets async.background_updates so the Background Updates health test does not appear in Site Health.

Development & Testing

• PHP: >=8.2 (see composer.json).
• Run code style checks: composer run lint
• Run static analysis: composer run phpstan
• Run tests: composer run test
• Get coverage: composer run coverage

CI is defined in .github/workflows/ci.yml and runs on PHP 8.2–8.5.

Contributing

Contributions should be small and focused. Follow the repository coding standards (WPCS) and run the static checks before opening a PR.
