    is there a way to force a check? i notice that sometimes it takes 1 day other times 3 or 4 days, before i am told of an update and allowed to do so with automated updated on the backend.

    Hello,

    Actually, WP has force check button in Dashboard > Updates http://prntscr.com/e5o6vh but it has some delay. You may add the following parameter to the url to force check theme updates &theme_force_check=1 and you’ll have the following wp-admin/update-core.php?force-check=1&theme_force_check=1

    Regards

    hi, yes, we know about the check again button, that did not show the latest update
    and we tried your url parameter trick, that did not work either

    wp-admin/update-core.php?force-check=1&theme_force_check=1

    and here we are again, with a updated theme 3.8.1 (we have 3.8) but no prompt to update, even though it has been out for a day or two.

    any other suggested way to get the updates quicker?

    Hello,

    If you want to get update quicker use manual update method – via FTP.

    Regards
