See in action
To see this plugin in action visit the CircaCraft Minecraft server:
Strict Versioning
Not normally needed, but if you're running a Minecraft server that is outdated, then strict versioning will only download compatible versions of plugins.
This feature is not needed for servers running up-to-date with Minecraft and is turned off by default. To turn it on, look in the config.
First Run
On the first run of the plugin it will automatically search all plugins installed and index/register them with the updater. (Happens when a new plugin is installed also). Then it will take the newly registered plugin(s) and attempt to re-download them all off dev.bukkit.org - This should only happen the first time it meets a new plugin; from then on the downloads will only be for new versions of plugins. However if the task is unsuccessful for a certain plugin (Bukkit page is different to plugin name) then it will un-register it and you'll have to register it manually with /upu register.
To plugin developers: It is quite likely that you don't want the updater to re-download your plugin for every new version-Your version is newer! If this is the case simply do /upu unregister <PluginName> and the updater will no longer attempt to update it.
Force update a plugin: If you wish to force update a plugin simply do /upu update <Plugin> and if you're impatient follow it with /upu check. Do not however type /reload until it is updated because then it will cancel the update. If you wish to force update all your plugins (corrupted, etc...) then simply look in the plugins/UltimatePluginUpdater folder and delete the cfgPlugins.data file - This will make the plugin think it is doing the 'first-run' again and it will re-register all installed plugins.
Configuration
There isn't a lot to configure: Just the colour scheme and which plugins are registered. The colour scheme can be changed in plugins/UltimatePluginUpdater/config.yml and the rest can be done with the commands above.

To-Do
- Improve update management eg. Option to set individual plugins to 'notify only'
Anyway this can be compatible with Spigot plugins, also, can you specify the link to a plugin for if the name is different?
@OwnzNoobz
It's not this plugin, it's another one which was updated
I installed this plugin and ran it. Now if I try to type a message it just says 'chat.local' how do I fix it?
Does this update plugins to the 1.7-1.8 spigot version if avalible?
@The_PC_Tech_Guy
Look in the config :)
@storm345
That wasn't my question. I was asking if there was a way to change the interval in which the plugin checks for updates.
@PapiDimmi
Sorry, oops. Fixed now, thanks,
This plugins is just WONDERFUL! It helped me keep track of the outdated plugins and I could keep my server updated everytime the scheduled restart happens.
@The_PC_Tech_Guy
The plugin already automatically reloads.
@storm345
All I see in the config is:
@TomasOlsson
It is added.
when will the config for auto reload be added?
@aasikki
This is intended behaviour. Don't worry! :)
First time I ran this plugin it worked well and succesfully updated my plugins but after I restarted my server to reload all those plugins, I get this message to the console;
Happens everytime I restart my server or use check or update commands.
@The_PC_Tech_Guy
All is currently in the config except for console registry :)
Hello, I have a few feature requests: The first is what @hunted2 stated - register plugins in console. He stated you can use quotation marks to deal with plugins with spaces.
The second is to change the amount of time the plugin checks for updates. I only have about 10 plugins on my server, and I don't need it to check every 30 minutes, nor do I need to see it all over my console.
Otherwise, thanks for the simple plugin!
@WEB11
Yes, just change the settings in the config.
Is there a way to just run an update check to see what plugins are outdated without actually downloading them? I prefer to update my plugins one by one to avoid breaking stuff.

@hunted2
I know I can, but then it would break it for every plugin who's name is more than one word, or who's filename is more than one word
