Will updating plugins change customizations or cause files to be lost?

Hey there!

Thanks for posting your question about <strong>safely running plugin updates</strong>. I’m happy to answer that for you.Although updates are designed to avoid manipulating your site files and data, abnormal behavior may occur with other integrated components.

Because the effects of updating various components are unpredictable, I always suggest running a manual backup prior to and immediately after running each update. This allows you multiple instances to restore your site, should you notice any unusual behavior caused by the update(s). I hope this helps!

Sincerely,

Carlos E
