How to Set Up Auto-updates for WordPress Plugins
This tutorial will show how to set auto-updates for the plugins you use on your WordPress Website.
Why do I need auto-updates?
When developers release updated versions of plugins, it’s actually because vulnerabilities are discovered in older versions. The faster you update, the earlier that vulnerability is removed. Not updating quickly leaves your website in risk of hacking or malware infection. Fixing auto-updates suggests that you do not have to manually update your plugins on every time a new version is released.
Should I use auto-updates on my site?
Auto-updates work fine with most sites. However, there’s the potential that changes to the coding of a plugin will cause a software conflict that stops your website from operating properly. Although the possibility of this can be very small, it’s necessary that you simply have a backup to restore your website to its earlier version should this happen.
Can I automate updates for all my plugins?
You can choose for which plugins you would like to auto-update. However, sometimes you’ll be able to set auto-updates for plugins you’ve got installed
from the WordPress repository. Third-party plugins typically need to be manually updated, although some developers have set up auto-updates for thier own plugins.
