WordPress Website Updates

Update of WordPress Plugins, Themes, and Core

  • Out-dated WordPress themes, plugins, and version are the number one-way hackers gain access to your website (besides brute force hacks of your login).
  • Even deactivated themes and plugins can leave your website system vulnerable.
  • As best business practice I want to keep your website safe – without doing this, and if your site does get hacked then it will ultimately cost us both more time and therefore your money to put right.
  • Keeping your WordPress website’s plugins / themes and core version up to date also ensures that the site is compatible with the latest internet browser versions (computer).
  • There are a couple of ways that you can work with me on this – As best business practice I will make sure that the updates are done often as and when they arise – I will then send you an invoice at the end of the month for time taken to do this
  • OR if you are signed up to a website development retainer with me then I will apply the updates automatically (you will therefore not receive a separate bill).
  • Please note that the updates come through their 3rd party creators and WordPress themselves so I don’t know per say when they are coming out and need to be applied.
  • Upon applying updates I will ensure that your website is working correctly and that any custom codes that we have used are applied and working still.

Image Copyright

  • All images required for a project must be sourced by the customer.
  • The customer is responsible for ensuring that the appropriate rights to use in the imagery have been obtained.
  • Any liability for any copyright infringement falls on the company displaying the imagery, which is considered the end user.
