  What's the exact problem?
  
  Are you sure you are using the latest version of the code?
  
  I suggest that you try to use another code and combine the downloads with it.

    I have tried both his code (which is an offshoot of the original code), as well as this original code.
    
    That second code would only notify the user that an update was available, I want it to notify AND allow the user to update which is what I'm assuming will be the result of the code I am trying to use.

  Sébastien | French WordpressDesigner says:

  maybe
  

  'user-agent' => 'wordpress/' . $wp_version . '; ' . get_bloginfo('url')

  
  instead of
  

  'user-agent' => 'WordPress/' . $wp_version . '; ' . get_bloginfo('url')

  
  
  (dumb ?)

  A simple suggestion which might help yield some answers as to why your script is 'failing';
  
  Turn on debug. Note that this will display database errors and PHP warnings on your site;
  
  http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php
  
  All you need to do is add the following line to /wp-config.php, or change the

  false

  value to

  true

  if the define statement is already there;
  
  

  define('WP_DEBUG', true);

  
  
  best,
