Hello!
I have a website that needs some updating (http://thereturnmovie.co.uk/). It is currently on version 4.3.2 of X Theme, 4.9.2 of Visual Composer and WordPress 4.4.8. I obviously want to update it to the most recent version of everything.
I know you won’t be able to advise on the individual elements of the site, but is there anything in particular I should look out for?
I should also point out that all the pages were created with Visual Composer, not Cornerstone.
Thank you,
Sam
Hello Sam,
Thanks for writing in! I would recommend that you create a staging site. This is very useful because you can test drive any X updates in the staging area, do the customizations and troubleshooting without disrupting your live site. Once everything is perfect, you can easily and flawlessly proceed the update in the live site. To know how to create a staging area, please check out these articles:
