Keep Your Website Updated and Stay Secure
Keeping your WordPress plugins up to date is just as important as locking your doors at night. At any given time, over 80% of WordPress websites aren’t completely up to date, this is what hackers target outdated versions on PHP, WordPress themes or plugins.
How do I update my plugins?
WordPress has one of the easiest updating systems, you can literally update it in two clicks by going to your ‘updates’ section on your admin panel. Anything that needs updating will be shown there simply press ‘update plugin’.
Will this affect my site?
No, updating WordPress doesn’t affect the theme, by default. By updating your CMS and plugins only, your theme won’t be affected. That’s why secure updates are very important. Make sure you back-up the site whenever you update your WordPress. You can restore your site back to normal if there are any issues (this includes the core files used to run WordPress)
If you’re worried about your website security make sure you’re on a reliable server but don’t hesitate to pick up the phone and call our lovely team for some free advice regarding any questions or issues you may be experiencing whilst online.
