Automated WordPress Updates

WorldPress is vulnerable to a variety of malware if its security updates are not installed regular basis. Updates can be automated - or applied manually with a few clicks from our control panel. This is supported on default in Hostaan's excellent WP hosting plans and Managed Cloud 2.0 environments.

 

However, the weakness of regular automatic updates is that withouth a seperate compatibility check, they can break the site. For this reason on most cases updates should be done manually with extreme care - and also with backups taken befor starting the update process.
