Most CEOs then make two mistakes: either ignore the signal for weeks (taking on a huge security risk) or routinely click on the \u201cUpdate All\u201d button, which occasionally causes your website to deteriorate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s take a look at how to handle this task professionally so that your website remains secure but also stable!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Why is updating a vital issue?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress is the most popular CMS system in the world, which means hackers and malicious bots are constantly scanning the net for vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Safety spots:<\/strong> When an add-on creator releases an update, those cases are 90%In it, there are no new features, but patched a gap through which attackers could take control of your site.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Compatibility:<\/strong> PHP (the language of the server) and WordPress itself are constantly evolving. If you don\u2019t update an extension, it can \u201ccrash\u201d over time in a newer environment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. When NOT to be blindly pressed on the update button<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although updating is essential, the <strong>\u201cclick and pray\u201d<\/strong> strategy is dangerous, especially for a live WooCommerce webshop. Do not press update in the following cases without saving:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Main version changes (Major updates):<\/strong> If the version number of a plugin is urik (e.g. from 3.x to 4.0), it often rewrites the internal logic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vital Functions:<\/strong> If the item to be updated is your webshop\u2019s payment module, cart management, or page viewer (e.g. Bricks\/Elementor), you may stop receiving orders in no time due to a wrong click.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step by step: Secure update protocol<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Back up (Backup)<\/strong> Before starting any major update, make sure your hosting or an external system has a fresh, working backup of your website. If something goes wrong, you can reset it to the previous state at the touch of a button. <em>[Screenshot location: Backup button for a backup extension or storage manager]<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Navigate to Control Panel &gt; Updates<\/strong> Here you see a list of exactly what needs to be updated (WordPress core, plugins, templates). <em>[Screenshot location: WordPress Updates page with listed items]<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Upgrade gradually.<\/strong> Instead of clicking on the \u201cUpdate All\u201d button, move in line. First, update the smaller, less critical extensions, then the larger ones. During updates, open the main page of your website in a new tab and make sure everything is in place. <em>[Screenshot location: \u201cUpdate Now\u201d next to each plugin]<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83d\udca1 Pro Tip: Staging (Test) environment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Professional agencies never update on the live page for the first time. They create an exact copy (stating environment), run updates there, test the checkout of the webshop, and if everything is green, they only sharpen the change on the real page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Has the site disintegrated after an update?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If an update went wrong, don't panic.
