Check your themes, just for a laugh. They should all show up together in the update screen, mind you.

No updates listed in themes (via Appearance>Themes). The notifier number does show next to the Plugins dashboard sidebar item (as well as adminbar and dashboard>updates). Deleted the few themes in the system that I'm not using to reduce clutter, no change in notifier number.

Thanks for the quick response.

What does it show when you go to Dashboard->Updates. Add a screenshot.

Any caching setup on the server?

W3 Total Cache is the only caching setup within WP or on the server as far as I'm aware. I emptied those caches with no change. Deactivated plugin with no change.

With all previous updates, the notifier count remained when the update confirmation screen was displayed, but did not show afterwards after navigating elsewhere beyond that initial update confirmation screen.

It looks like plugin data might still be held in Cache. Look at WP_Object_Cache.

  • My suggestion would be try renaming a folder within the Plugins Directory /wp-content/plugins/.
  • Then loading the WP-Admin Plugins Page.
  • Then rename that folder back.
  • Then loading the WP-Admin Plugins Page again.

See if the number still show an update.

Replying to justindgivens:

Plugins are only held in cache for the duration of the pageload (non-persistent).

Do you have the WordPress Beta Tester plugin enabled? That will sometimes result in the '1' count. You can also, in the admin area, var_dump( wp_get_update_data() ); to get the calculations.

Oh okay, thanks for clearing that up. I apologize for any misleading information.

Negative on WP Beta Tester.

Apologies, but where/how on admin for the code. Attempted in address bar, led to Google (Using latest stable Firefox on Ubuntu) and in the console resulted in var_dump not defined error.

  • Resolution set to invalid
  • Severity changed from minor to trivial
  • Status changed from new to closed

I renamed my plugins folder (to quickly remove all plugins). The update notifier returned to 0.
I renamed it back to add plugins back, it reverted back to 1.

Removed each plugin from the directory until offending plugin (Premise by Copyblogger) was determined. Note sent to the developer informing them that plugin was reporting update available but giving no indication via update-core, nor the plugins page, nor the plugin's admin pages.

Updated plugin to most recent version manually; update notifier cleared, as expected.
