This is your WordPress desktop!

The desktop is the first place you will come to every time you access your site. 

This is where you will find all your WordPress tools.

If you need help, simply click on the "Help" tab above the screen title.

In this section we can find the following mergers:

Upgrades: "If an update is available, a notification will appear in the toolbar and in the navigation menu. Keeping your site up to date is important for security. It also makes the Internet a safer place for you and your readers."

How to Upgrade:

WordPress - Updating your WordPress installation is a simple one-click procedure: just click the "Update Now" button when you are notified that a new version is available. In most cases, WordPress will perform security and maintenance updates on its own.

Themes and Plugins - To update themes or plugins one by one from this screen, use the checkboxes to make your choice, then click the corresponding "Update" button. To update all your themes or plugins at once, you can select the checkbox at the top of the section to choose them all before clicking the update button.

 

Translations - The files that translate WordPress into your language are updated when any other update occurs. But if these files are outdated, you can click the "Update translations" button.

Automatic updates:  pueden ser activadas o desactivadas para las versiones mayores de WordPress y para cada tema o plugin individual. Los temas o plugins con las actualizaciones automáticas activadas mostrarán la fecha estimada de la siguiente actualización automática. Las actualizaciones automáticas dependen del sistema de programación de tareas WP-Cron.

Please note: Third-party themes and plugins or custom code may override WordPress programming.
