This Week's Episode:
Step 1: Check
Google WordPress 4.0 (make sure that search for WordPress 4.0 in quotes). The goal is to look for potential problems that the latest update is currently experiencing.
Step 2: Backup
Always backup before you update. We use BackupBuddy, which simplifies and automates the entire process. (If you’re looking for a plugin to use, we recommend it.)
Step 3: Update
Update from within the dashboard or update via FTP. I personally prefer updating from the dashboard. Here’s what you can expect with the new updates—
- New editor features
- Updated media library
- Expanded customization options
- Better plugin navigation and views
Step 4: Verify
Make sure everything works. Test all your pages to make sure that every page does what it’s supposed to.
WordPress 4.0 is a big change—so if you need a more in-depth walk through of the process and a tour of all the new features that you can enjoy with the update watch the full webinar.
