To reduce manual work, you can enable auto updates.
-
In your dashboard, go to Plugins and enable auto update for each plugin you trust.
-
For themes, go to Appearance ? Themes and select auto update.
-
For WordPress core, many hosting panels (including Ahosting’s cPanel) allow you to enable auto updates during installation or later.
This ensures that your site always has the latest security patches without needing manual intervention.
