Importance of keeping your WordPress Version Up-To-Date

Written by Gabriel on September 30, 2013

Protect your WordPress Site by using the Latest Version Available

An important element to keeping your WordPress site secure is to stay caught up with the latest versions available for download.  WordPress makes staying up-to-date easy with these simple steps to follow:

  1. WordPress does a good job keeping its software, themes, and plugins updated with new versions and patches to keep any new security vulnerabilities at bay.
  2. If you have an update to install you will see a prominent yellow notification bar across the top of your WordPress dashboard.
  3. The name of what needs the update is also displayed within the notification.
  4. To install, simply click the link and it will perform the update without having to leave the dashboard page.

*You can also check what version of WordPress your currently using by clicking the WordPress logo located in the top left corner and selecting About WordPress from the drop down menu.  This will bring you to a page that states what version your running and information about the new features associated with the latest version your on.  It will also prompt you here if your WordPress version is out of date and will provide a link to download the latest version.

Gecko built us a new Unity Hospice website from the ground up, as well as designing new brochures and other collateral material. Working with them has been a pleasure - they are professional, organized, responsive, aim to please, and are easy to work with. Their design work is beautiful, and they really took pains to understand the look we were going for. Highly recommended!

We redesigned a very very old website with Gecko and began the process during coronavirus. Despite those challenges, the team at Gecko was very helpful and flexible. They built us a beautiful website, taking into account all our needs. The project manager Grace, was a pleasure to work with, always available to answer questions, great with communication, and very organized. They went above and beyond to make sure the end product was perfect, even if it meant putting in extra hours, or extending the project longer than anticipated. We really appreciated all they did for us and could not be happier with the results!

Working with the team at Gecko Designs has been fantastic! I worked closely with Ali to create a new meetings website and she was so patient with all the changes to copy and took the time to walk me through the back-end of Word Press. I am confidently making changes on own but know that any request will be done quickly. The team was even very responsive over a weekend to meet a deadline. Highly, highly recommend!

Gecko's team does great work. We had a fairly complex request with a variety of stakeholder interests at play. Their team listened carefully and responded thoughtfully to our needs throughout the process! We were very pleased with the process and thrilled with the final product they provided.
We’ve been working so hard making our clients look good, we neglected our own brand for quite a few years (25 to be exact...)! New look comin’ at ya Spring 2021! Has it been awhile since you’ve re-branded? We get it! Call us and we can help! (406) 662-1123
