It’s important to regularly update WordPress installations like core, themes, and plugins, which will keep you safe as well, while you have the newest features, better compatibility, and a smooth WordPress experience.
In this article, we will explain how you can manage WordPress Updates for your website through our WPX Hosting Panel quickly and easily without having to log into your website.
