Safe Updates

The new Safe Updates feature helps you perform plugin updates smoothly and safely, ensuring that you never break your WordPress site with a plugin update again.

You have the following three options before updating your plugins in WP Umbrella:

Quick Update:
Update plugins the traditional way with a basic compatibility check.
Classic Safe Update:
They check compatibility, create a restore point and monitor uptime and status codes. If there is a critical issue, the update is automatically rolled back. Remember to add your FTP/SFTP credentials for full functionality.
Advanced Safe Update:
Everything in Classic Safe Update, plus visual regression monitoring to catch design or layout changes. Choose between manual validation, where you check the impact of the update, or automatic rollback if problems exceed your set threshold.

Plugin Management Pages

They have also redesigned the plugin management pages to make the process more user-friendly. The new UX will also be rolled out to the theme update pages over the coming months.

What’s Next?

WP Umbrella will introduce domain and SSL monitoring, allowing you to alert your clients before their domain or SSL certificate expires – preventing downtime and security issues.
