Issue WP Toolkit update broke update rules?

Debian 9.13
Plesk version and microupdate number
Version 18.0.44 Update #1
Hi,

I was using a few months old WP toolkit version and everything was working fine. Auto-updates for core, plugins and themes were disabled since I use WP Toolkit to manually update everything each week. Some websites have theme / plugin issues so auto-updates are a big no-no in my case.

Today we updated Plesk and WP Toolkit to the latest versions and now auto-update rules seem to be broken.

1. WP Toolkit documentation is obsolete: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/...plugins-and-themes-in-Plesk-WordPress-Toolkit

This is NOT how WP Toolkit update options look like now. There is no option to disable ALL theme and plugin auto-updates anymore ???

This is how it looks like now (nothing like the documentation page).

2. No matter which options I choose, I always get this (plugin and themes updates are always on auto-update).

My question is, how do I completely disable auto-updates for my themes and plugins via WP Toolkit in this version?
 
Have you tried to switch off "Autoupdat all plugins"?

Interesting.... when I do that, ALL themes and plugins have auto-updates disabled already (from before), as they should.

However, they are still marked as if they have auto-updates enabled.

It seems there is a bug in the UI — it shows "Auto" badge for plugins and themes which are not really had auto updates enabled.
