Hi! I remember that Hivepress sites had updates that were recommended to install. I started working on my listingHive site again after MANY months, if not a year. Should I update anything? My website still works perfectly though.
Kind regards,
Francesco
Hi Francesco,
We’re glad to hear you’ve decided to continue with HivePress.
You can view new updates in your WP Dashboard under Updates. Auto-updates can also be enabled for your convenience [please see the screenshot]. If no updates are showing, it means your version is already up to date.
Hi. My last update is pretty old. 1.2.6 instead of 1.2.11. Do you recommend to update it? I really hope that by updating it it won’t mess anything on my website, maybe being my last update too old it would be risky to update the theme version? : ( I have a function website with users so I wouldn’t want it to be destroyed because of an update…let me know!
Thank you!
If you’re referring to the theme, it’s fine to update, as the theme contains only design elements and not core features, so there shouldn’t be any issues.
However, if your current HivePress plugin version is very old [you can check the second number in your version and the version available for update, if there’s a significant difference, it indicates a major release gap], please make a backup first before updating the plugin.
Updates for free products can be found in WordPress Dashboard > Updates. For premium products, you need to add your license key in WP Dashboard > HivePress > Settings > Integrations > HivePress Store. Once the key is added, updates for premium products will also appear.
Hope this helps.
