Questions & Answers

Who’s job is it to update my WordPress plugins?

My WordPress plugins are out of date — who can handle updates for me?

A WordPress care provider or maintenance agency can handle this for you.

They typically:

Update plugins safely
Test for conflicts
Roll back updates if something breaks
Ensure compatibility with your theme

Keeping plugins updated is critical for security:

???? This is one of the main reasons businesses use care packages — to avoid breaking their site.

So, with our website care packages, we will keep your plugins up-to-date, look after security, secure certificates and all the other boring-but-important stuff.

And… when we’re updating your plugins, we test as we go. If any of your plugin updates cause a problem with your website, we can see which one is the culprit and make sure it doesn’t crash your website. If a plugin update does crash your website, we will ‘roll it back’ to the previous version to keep you up and running.

NOTE: We don’t ‘auto-update’ anything. We do it manually, test and manage it like a real human geing.

Take out a care package with us and you won’t have to worry about your site breaking again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An amazing company and an equally amazing front man in Martin. What he doesn’t know about digital media, SEO, Google etc is not worth knowing. If you want a website built from scratch or tweaked then there is no better company than Red Design.
