WordPress Management: Maintenance

Every website or blog needs regular maintenance. WordPress software, themes, and plugins need to be updated. This section of the WordPress Management Tutorials module contains tutorials on WordPress maintenance.

Some tutorials in this module may require editing your WordPress template or server files. If you need help modifying template or server files please contact a professional or experienced WordPress user for assistance (learn where to get help with WordPress).

Important: Always do a backup of your WordPress site (files and data) before modifying any files. If you don’t want to back up your data manually, then hire the services of a professional WordPress provider, or use a backup plugin.

Learn about a great WordPress backup plugin that we recommend using to completely automate your backups here:
