# Update all Shopware plugins at once, with backup > Central dashboard for all plugin and Shopware core updates. Backup shield, rollback, audit log. Submission-ready in the Shopware Store. Quelle / Source: https://stoneandwater.online/en/update-manager.html # Update Shopware plugins in one go: Update Manager. Plugin and Shopware updates in a single dashboard - with backup, rollback and audit log. [View manual](https://stoneandwater.online/en/manual-update-manager.html) A closer look ## The Update Manager *in pictures*. Plugin overview and bulk update - exactly as they appear in the Shopware admin. The problem New ## Plugin maintenance is *underestimated*. With a growing plugin landscape and multiple shops, update hygiene becomes the bottleneck - Stone & Water Plugin Update Manager cleans this up. The problem · plugin maintenance in multi-shop setups ### Manually clicking through updates costs hours - and makes errors unavoidable. If you maintain multiple Shopware shops, you know the drill: every few weeks 20+ plugin updates per shop, plus core patches. Every time clicking manually through the plugin manager, doing backups beforehand, checking afterwards whether migrations ran, and on the first bug frantically searching for the old ZIP. That does not scale. Before: manual ### ~20-30 minutes per shop Click through manually per shop: pick plugin, start update, wait, clear cache, verify. With 5 shops, half a day. Before: no backup ### No one remembers what it looked like Did anyone actually pull a backup before the update? If the plugin no longer works after the update, there is often no way back except reinstalling the old version by hand. Before: no audit log ### Who did what, when? With multiple admins, no traceability - who updated this plugin and which version was installed before? Central dashboard ## All updates - *in one place*. A single screen for every plugin and Shopware update, with status, diff preview and bulk actions. All plugins ### In one dashboard Instead of clicking through the Shopware plugin manager - all pending updates for all installed plugins on one page. With current version, new version, release date. Shopware core ### Patch · minor · major The Shopware core itself is also shown - patch, minor and major versions clearly separated, with breaking-change hints per major. Status per plugin ### Backed-up · pending · ready Per plugin a status indicator: is there a backup? Is the plugin running against the current Shopware version? Is there an update pending? Bulk update ### Many at once Select multiple plugins and update them in one go - the manager runs them sequentially and stops on errors. Symfony tasks ### Automatic after update After every plugin update the necessary Symfony console tasks are executed automatically: `cache:clear`, `database:migrate`, `plugin:refresh`. Diff preview ### What actually changes Before every update you see the key changes from the plugin changelog. If breaking changes are included, an extra warning is shown. [Image: Update Manager - Screenshot] **All plugins**in one list How it looks in the admin - See plugins with available updates - Select several - Automatic backup before the update - One click back if something breaks Ideal for Agencies with many shops Regular maintenance Safe updates Traceable history See all images Backup & rollback ## Safety net *built in*. Snapshots before every update, one-click rollback, audit log across all actions. No more "damn, no backup" moments. Backup shield · before every update ### No update without a backup. Full stop. Before every single plugin update the whole plugin directory is archived automatically - both the installed PHP files and the plugin configuration from the database (system_config entries). This is not optional, it is default. Pre-update snapshot ### Filesystem + DB config Before every update a snapshot of the plugin folder is taken - including the corresponding `system_config` entries in the Shopware database. Rollback ### With one click If an update causes problems - rollback to the previous version with one click. Backup is restored, migrations rolled back if needed. Rotation ### Keep 5 versions By default the last 5 versions per plugin are kept - adjustable per plugin or globally. Audit log ### Who, when, from where to where Every update is logged with user, timestamp, old and new version - full traceability for teams. Shield badge ### Visual backup status Per plugin a shield badge: green when backup exists; yellow when last backup is older than 7 days; red when none exists. Manual backups ### Ad-hoc snapshot Even without a pending update, a manual backup snapshot for any plugin can be triggered anytime. Update modes ## Manual, scheduled, or *stage-by-stage*. You choose how aggressively updates run - immediately, nightly, or in wave mode across multiple servers. With optional maintenance mode. Immediate ### Classic update-now button For individual plugins you want to update right now - click "Update now", plugin is updated, cache cleared, done. Scheduled ### Cron-job capable Weekly, nightly, monthly - updates can run automatically in a maintenance window. The SW 6.7 constructor fix for scheduled tasks is included. Stage-by-stage ### Test prod Update plan definitions: test server first, then prod after 24 hours. On error in test run, prod update is locked automatically until you double-check. Whitelist mode ### Only approved plugins In highly regulated setups: only plugins from a whitelist may auto-update - everything else must be manually approved per update. Multi-shop queue ### Sequential, not parallel Multiple Shopware instances are processed sequentially - no simultaneous multi-server hammer on the plugin source. Maintenance mode ### Optional automatic Before the update the Shopware maintenance mode can be enabled - and disabled automatically afterwards. Storage ## Flysystem-compliant - *S3-ready*. Backups land via Shopware Flysystem in the configured storage - local, S3, or both in parallel. Flysystem · storage-flexible ### Backups land where they should - local, S3, or both. Instead of working with `fopen` and `file_put_contents` directly, the Plugin Update Manager runs entirely through Shopware Flysystem. That makes it S3-compatible - backups can be stored on cloud storage without the plugin having to change anything. Local FS ### Default - no cloud dependency By default everything runs locally in the `files/` directory. No external storage, no additional setup, no vendor lock-in. S3-compatible ### AWS, Wasabi, MinIO, Backblaze On request, backups can be stored on any S3-compatible storage - via standard Shopware filesystem configuration. Hybrid ### Local + cloud in parallel Backups can be stored locally AND in the cloud at the same time - local fast restore, cloud disaster recovery.

The module refreshes the plugin list, shows installed and available versions and installs updates for all or selected plugins in one go. The cache is cleared automatically afterwards. #### Are automatic updates possible? Yes, per plugin and at a fixed time. A scheduled task checks every 15 minutes whether that time has come, which needs a running worker. On heavily customised shops a maintenance slot with manual checks is often the calmer choice. #### Can I roll back an update? Yes. Before updating, the plugin folder is saved as a ZIP, by default the last five versions per plugin. Before restoring, the plugin first saves a copy of the current state. #### Am I notified about updates? After an automatic run a summary email lists what was updated and what failed. If there was nothing to do, no email is sent. #### What does the Update Manager cost? Buying direct costs 9.99 euros net per month or 101.90 euros net per year. Paying yearly saves you 15 percent. All prices plus VAT.
