WordPress needs lots of updating. Core, plugins, themes – new updates are always appearing. And any substantial WordPress site is going to have a lot of plugins, and hence updates. UpdraftPlus.Com runs WordPress, and has 29 plugins! Plugins are part of what makes WordPress so great… and at times, quite frustrating…
WordPress helpfully advises you to back things up before updating … but, being honest, do you do that? It’s a bit too tempting to save a minute, skip… and… oh dear, that new plugin just broke your site. How do your roll back? When did you last take a backup? Oh no – it’s from a week ago…
Wouldn’t it be great if WordPress could automatically take a back up whenever you use the dashboard screen to update plugins or themes? If there was nothing extra click, and if it just happened for you? UpdraftPlus can – read more about it here.
