MAINTENANCE
Normal weekly and monthly website maintenance including WordPress core updates, Plugin updates and Theme updates, will be scheduled and performed after hours to reduce interruption. Should an update break the website, it will immediately be rolled-back to the state prior to performing the update. We will then investigate the issue and if we can easily fix the problem, we will as part of our normal maintenance routine. If the problem is more extensive, you will be contacted to discuss a solution prior to performing the work.
For more extensive updates and development, a website staging environment will be created for testing and troubleshooting before going live.
