If you’re on a maintenance plan with us, we’ll handle all updates for you as part of the service. This ensures updates are tested and applied without causing compatibility issues.
If you’re not on a maintenance plan and wish to update your website yourself, please proceed with caution:
- Back Up Your Website: Always create a full backup before making any updates to ensure you can restore your site if something goes wrong.
- Update One at a Time: Update plugins, themes, or the WordPress core individually, and test your site thoroughly after each update.
- Test Features: Verify that critical functions, such as contact forms, e-commerce checkouts, and other key features, are still working properly.
⚠ Important: Updates can occasionally cause layout or functionality issues, especially with plugins or themes that may not be compatible with the current version of WordPress. If you encounter any issues, submit a support ticket, and we’ll assist you.
To avoid risks, we recommend considering one of our maintenance plans, which ensure all updates are handled professionally and include proactive troubleshooting.
