One of the features that can save you the most time in maintaining your websites is the global updater from Modular.
You can access the updater from the left side menu in the control panel.
Once inside, you will be able to see all available updates for your websites connected to Modular, divided into the following categories:
-
Plugins
-
Themes
-
WordPress
-
Translations
Each category will indicate how many items need to be updated.
Within the list, to the right of the name, you will see the current version your website has and the version it needs to be updated to. You can click on that latest version to view the changelog of changes for the plugin or theme.
To perform an update, you need to select the available items you want to update and click on the "Update Selection" button.
You can choose, for example, to update a plugin on all websites that contain it. However, you can also select only some of them and leave others without updating.
Vulnerabilities
From the Modular global updater, you can also see the vulnerabilities in your plugins, themes, or the installed WordPress version on your sites, if any exist.
If you click on the alert icon, you will see information about the type of vulnerability, its severity, the version in which it is resolved, or the original documentation regarding it.
Synchronization of updates
If you suspect that updates are not properly synchronized, for example, if a plugin that should be listed for update is missing, you can use the "Reload" button. This will send a new request to your websites to refresh the information.
