Update WordPress, themes and plugins

Table Of Contents

Updates close security holes. Ideally update at least once a month.

Here's how #

  1. Make a backup first (see Backups, or prepare a backup via Rewind in DigiPanel).
  2. Log in at yourdomain.be/wp-admin.
  3. Go to Dashboard → Updates.
  4. Update the plugins first, then the themes, and finally WordPress itself.
  5. Check your site in a private window. If something's wrong, restore the backup.

Rather not do this yourself? With Managed WordPress we keep WordPress, your themes and plugins up to date.
