Configured using the Nexcess Installer, our Managed WordPress and Managed WooCommerce hosting plans at Nexcess come with multiple WordPress plugins for ecommerce and sites.

Using the Plugins > Updates Available option in wp-admin, the auto-update feature in the WordPress core, or iThemes Sync (when managing manage multiple sites) are all ways to keep plugins updated.

Since creating content in a WordPress site now uses the block editor, we are going to cover a number of plugins that make managing content easier on your site.

Being able to easily deactivate all active plugins on a site and change the active theme will make troubleshooting issues on your site a lot easier. This article will cover the steps involved.

The auto-updates feature introduced in WordPress 5.5 is very easy and supports plugins and themes that are on WordPress.org — if you do not want to use the alternative Nexcess update functionality.

Managed WordPress and Managed WooCommerce sites on Nexcess come with multiple plugin options. For managed WordPress and WooCommerce plans, this includes Astra Pro, Beaver Builder, and several premium plugins.
