<div><br></div><div>The other thing that comes to mind, is if all the servers you're testing on are on a slower network, the update checks might be timing out, so it's only the once-ever-24hrs check that waits longer for a response that's working, and so not picking up the updates.. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Assuming everything else is working, there's not much else that can be impacting upon it (except maybe a plugin..).

Caroline & Dion ... <br><br>Thanks for the quick feedback. However, I thought of this. Actually, to test this before posting on the list, I tried installing older versions of the theme on a couple different sites; including a site that is not registered to me. The update message still didnt appear. I wonder if WordPress recognizes my IP address, or the email associated or domain associated with my user login; and that is why it does not appear for me. Any other thoughts on this. Dion, thx also for testing this. Glad it is working on your computer, anyway.<br>

<div><br></div><div>The main reason I can think of why you're not getting the alerts, would simply be due to your version number always matching the latest release or being up to date already?

Greetings ...<br><br>I have a theme on the Repository that has been updated a half-dozen times or so. My understanding is that WordPress.org runs a cron job twice a day that checks all the self installed WordPress installations to query which themes, plugins etc are installed. From what I have read the theme_update_available function in theme.php is supposed to display '<b>There is a new version of %1<a href="http://../../_variables/s.html" target="_blank">$s</a> available'</b> <i>with an update url</i>, whenever there is a new version of the theme, if it detects a there is a newer version of any of the installed themes that reside in the Repository. Unless I am misunderstanding something, this is the default behavior, unless the theme has added some code to bypass the this function. <br>
<br>I have not added any functions to bypass the theme_update_available(). However, even though I see the update message displayed for other themes, I have never seen it displayed for my theme, Wordsmith-Anvil. Does anyone know what would cause this function not to work for my theme?<br>
