@Nick-B @austinwendt Here is a new topic about the Local upgrade WordPress notification since the old one was automatically closed. > [@Local suggest to upgrade WordPress](https://community.localwp.com/t/local-suggest-to-upgrade-wordpress/38035): > > Why would Local briefly suggest to upgrade all websites to the latest WordPress beta version just because I have one website with the beta version? The Release website have been upgraded to WordPress version 6.4-RC2 via the shell command below. `wp core update --version=6.4-RC2` I’m NOT using the official [WordPress Beta Tester](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-beta-tester/) plugin on this website or any other Local website. Why would Local suggest to upgrade the Release website from WordPress version 6.4-RC2 to 6.5-alpha-57003? See the other post for more information about this bug. > **[Release WordPress Version](https://share.cleanshot.com/lWG9vDK8R93dfltLwZzD)** > > Screenshot uploaded to CleanShot Cloud > **[Website WordPress Version](https://share.cleanshot.com/0vhxC56GlWQS8rZQrJXD)** > > Screenshot uploaded to CleanShot Cloud ---

The Updates API must automatically set a `development` offer when the current version is greater than the current release. ``` https://api.wordpress.org/core/version-check/1.7/?version=6.4-RC2 ``` ---

Everything looks OK in the WordPress admin panel. And these updates are not visible in WordPress unless you have installed the [WordPress Beta Tester](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-beta-tester/) plugin. These updates notifications in the Local app is a bug. ---

I created a new site in Local. Used `wp core update --version=6.4-RC2 --force`. When I went back to the core updates pages it displayed the button to update to 6.5-nightly. WordPress Beta Tester never installed. ---

Strange, I’ve never seen that message before about updates to another major version in beta or RC. Anyway, the message about update from 6.3.2 to 6-5-alpha should not be there in the Local app. ---
