Before You Update

Always back up your site (files and database) before updating plugins, especially premium ones.

While PluginEver thoroughly tests all updates, specific server environments or plugin conflicts can occasionally lead to issues. Having a backup in place ensures that you can quickly restore your site if anything goes wrong.
