UpdraftPlus 1.9.42 Release
UpdraftPlus 1.9.42 is now available for all users. This release addresses critical issues found in the previous versions.
Bug fixes
Section titled Bug fixesThis update fixes a significant bug from versions 1.9.40 and 1.9.41 that caused uploads of backups to remote storage to fail prematurely. This issue left backup sets stored only on your webserver.
Dashboard issue for older WordPress versions
Section titled Dashboard issue for older WordPress versionsFor users of the paid versions of UpdraftPlus 1.9.40, this release resolves a problem that affected the dashboard page on older WordPress versions (3.1 – 3.5). If you are using one of these outdated versions, updating will restore proper functionality. Note that WordPress versions prior to 3.7 have known serious security vulnerabilities. We strongly recommend backing up your site and upgrading to a more recent version of WordPress to maintain security.
Recommendation
Section titled RecommendationWe advise all users to update to version 1.9.42 immediately to benefit from these important fixes and ensure your site’s security and functionality.
