Updates

In this video we’re going to look at updates.

WordPress itself, your themes, and plugins frequently require updating for new features, security, and bug fixes.

When updates are required you’ll see a circle with the number in it next to the word Updates in your WordPress dashboard.

If you have any content on your website make sure to run a backup prior to updating your themes, plugins, or WordPress.

We will look at backups in another video.

In your menu on the left-hand side under dashboard click on updates.

If there is a new version of WordPress update that first.

Tick the box to select all plugins then update plugins.

Wait a few moments then select all themes and update.

Now you know how to update WordPress, plugins and themes. I’ll see you in the next video.
