  Hi folks,

  My first post here so apologies in advance if this is not the right place for it.

  I constantly get emails from WordPress with the title, “Some plugins were automatically updated.”

  Are these emails necessary? Is there a way to avoid them? They’re becoming a nuisance.

  I don’t see any WordPress.com sites under your account here.

  What is the URL of the site with the problem?

  Hi,

  Sorry for being so late to respond. Other matters came up.

  Anyway, I think I have WordPress via Bluehost. Does this make sense?

  Ah, in that case you’ll be using the WordPress software from WordPress.org.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  WordPress.org has complete documentation for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress.org at https://wordpress.org/support/ and support at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
