Frequently Asked Questions

Should Major Updates Be Applied Immediately?

Not always. Stability is the priority for business websites. The update should be applied after checks and testing.

Which Checks Are Essential Before an Update?

A complete backup, theme and plugin compatibility, plus testing of the functions that generate leads or sales.

What Should I Do If a Problem Appears After the Update?

Ideally, a rollback plan and immediate monitoring should be available to return the website rapidly to a working state.

A good update delivers progress without compromising the continuity of online operations.

Useful Resources from the Same Ecosystem

Major WordPress updates bring new features but also changes that can affect themes, plugins and administration workflows. We therefore do not recommend automatic updates without checks, especially on commercial websites.

Version 5.9 introduced important changes to the editing experience and full-site editing, which meant opportunities for some projects and further adaptation and testing for others.

What We Check Beforehand

We check the compatibility of the theme, plugins, widgets and any customisations. We create a backup and test in a safe environment, not directly on the live website.

What Matters for Companies

For a business, stability takes priority. A good update delivers benefits without affecting content, conversions or daily administration.

Webhat can manage these updates in a controlled manner as part of periodic maintenance.
