WordPress Plugin and Core Updates is a one-off service that updates WordPress, your theme and every plugin safely, for a fixed price of A$149. Out of date plugins are the most common way WordPress sites get hacked, and updating everything at once without a backup can break a site. I take a full backup first, update in the right order, then test your key pages, forms and checkout so nothing is left broken.

Frequently asked questions
Why should I update WordPress plugins?
Updates fix security holes, bugs and compatibility issues. Outdated plugins are the most common cause of hacked WordPress sites.
Can an update break my site?
It can, which is why a full backup is taken first and updates are done in a safe order. If something breaks, the site is restored and the conflict is reported.
Do you update premium plugins?
Yes, if you have an active licence. Expired licences are listed in the report so you can renew them.
Is WooCommerce included?
Yes. WooCommerce and its extensions are updated and the checkout is tested with a test order.
