EP141 – Updates – how to not whitescreen your WordPress site

This week on WPwatercooler we’ll be discussing WordPress, plugins and theme updates and some best practices before pressing that update button on your live website.

We’d like to discuss running a local install with Desktop Server and Vagrant, using staging servers, testing plugins before live updating, WP Rollback and techniques on reducing the occurrence of a whitescreen of death, never ending Maintenance Mode and dreaded internal server error.

Show airs June 22 at 11am PDT / 2pm EDT / 7PM UTC
