Updating plugins safely

When to update, in what order, and how to undo it if something breaks.

4 min read · Last checked October 2026
  1. Take a backup first

    Run a backup in UpdraftPlus before any update. See the backups guide.

    Careful

    Never update on a Friday afternoon or before a busy day. Give yourself time to fix things.

  2. Update one plugin at a time

    Go to Dashboard → Updates, tick one plugin and click Update. Check the site, then do the next.

If a guide doesn’t match what you see, or you’d rather not do it yourself, ask. Clients on a care plan can hand all of this over to us.
