WP Downgrade | Specific Core Version
By Reisetiger
Description
WP Downgrade is a plugin that enables users to force the WordPress update routine to install a specified WordPress release. This allows you to download and install the core release from wordpress.org just like any regular update.
This plugin is particularly useful for users who cannot update to the latest WordPress version due to compatibility issues with their plugins. It allows for automatic updates even to lower versions, making the update process more manageable.
For security reasons, WP Downgrade is essential for anyone running an older WordPress installation. It provides the flexibility to choose secure releases rather than being restricted to the latest version only.

FAQ
A: If there is no button for update/reinstall core on /wp-admin/update-core.php, this is being blocked by a custom code. Can be another plugin or your theme. Maybe you try something like this:
- Deactivate all other plugins
- Switch to a standard theme
- Remove this from wp-config:
define( 'WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', false ); - Remove something like that from wp-config:
remove_action( 'init', 'wp_version_check' ); - Remove something like that from wp-config:
add_filter('pre_option_update_core','__return_null'); - Remove something like that from wp-config:
add_filter('pre_site_transient_update_core','__return_null'); - Remove “gd-system-plugin” from
/wp-content/mu-plugins/ - Remove the reference to
gd-config.phpin wp-config.php.
