Scheduling WordPress auto-updates

1

Is it possible to schedule when WordPress does its automatic updates? I don't want my site going down for an update during peak times or really any time during the day. I wish there was an option in the admin panel to schedule updates like you can with Windows.

If you are using a self-hosted version of WordPress, then you can use WP Update Settings or Advanced Automatic Updates. Both allow you to automatically update WordPress. The second has a lot more options and more reviews.

If you are using WordPress's hosted option, by default your WordPress will self update.
