how do you handle core & plugin updates?

Pagely Answers., which seeks to provide in-depth answers to questions that are hard to handle with FAQ..   Our upgrade process happens in the background and is non-event to you as customer.   We wait for core versions and will push point release the day.   However major release like 3.9 to 4.0 we wait many weeks until point release like say 4.0.1 comes out.   The Core will be upgraded regardless to maintain security throughout the service.   If you customize plugin and do not want it overwritten at the next cycle you need to.   However 99% of the time the issue would be with older plugin not compatible with version of WordPress.   In these cases we have handy self-service WhiteScreen Eliminator that allows you to reset your plugin and or theme back to Pagely defaults.   I work on the interwebs and am CEO and co-founder of Pagely the Managed WordPress Hosting company.   Pagely is the Managed WordPress Hosting Platform designed to exceed the needs of media, business, and Enterprise customers alike.   Read more
