WooCommerce will now push urgent security fixes to stores automatically
What they said
“Now our default is to give security fixes their own releases.”
In plain English
WooCommerce is changing how it handles security. Serious fixes now come out in their own quick updates instead of waiting for the next big release. From WooCommerce 11.2, extension makers can mark a security update as required. Connected stores with an active subscription then install it within about a day, even if automatic updates are turned off.
What to do
- 1Make sure your store is connected to WooCommerce.com
- 2Keep an eye on your site after updates
- 3Keep a recent backup
