About the software

WordPress is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) written in PHP and paired. Features include a plugin architecture and a template system, referred to within WordPress as "Themes". WordPress was originally created as a blog-publishing system but has evolved to support other web content types including more traditional mailing lists and Internet forum, media galleries, membership sites, learning management systems (LMS) and online stores. One of the most popular content management system solutions in use, WordPress is used by 42.8% of the top 10 million websites.

Plugin maintenance

As a managed WordPress hosting provider, we take care of all aspects of your WordPress installation including WordPress software updates, hosting, backups, and support. However, please note that we do not update the plugins on the WordPress instances we provide. This is because certain WordPress themes require specific versions of plugins, and with the vast number of available plugins, it is impossible to have expertise in all of the plugins out there.

It's important to note that updating a plugin without ensuring it is compatible with your theme could lead to your site becoming inaccessible or some parts of your site not working as intended. We recommend contacting a specialist with the necessary expertise to assist you in updating your plugins and ensuring compatibility with your theme.

Please note that while we do not offer WordPress site development, we are happy to assist you with any other issues related to our managed WordPress hosting service. Don't hesitate to reach out to our customer support team if you have any questions or concerns.
