Tutorial: Installing WordPress Updates

The WordPress community is always hard at work creating updates for the WordPress framework, themes, and plugins. When you login to your site to post to your blog, or moderate your comments, you may notice a message at the top of the dashboard, or an orange dot next to the plugins tab or the themes tab which indicates updates are available.

Social Cindy recommends that you install available updates as soon as possible. Here is a short tutorial video that will walk you through the simple process. Don’t worry. It’s just as simple as clicking a button.
