Pulls someone else's theme from repo

Open roryatbright opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Hi there,

Been having this ongoing issue with one of my themes. I use this to deploy updates to my child themes that aren't on the WP repo. It works great except for one, where it keeps pulling someone else's theme from the WordPress repository for updates. I have it configured to point to my server where I deploy updates, so I'm not sure why it continues to connect to the WP repo.

Thanks!

Could it be that the theme was inactive when that happened? The update checker only works while the theme is active, so if the theme is deactivated, the update checker won't be able to prevent WordPress from finding a matching theme on wordpress.org and displaying that as an "update".
