Hey TRUNG,
Have you ever updated a WordPress plugin or theme only to have the new version break your site?
This happened to me recently, and it's quite frustrating.
But since I have the option for 1-click undo my website, I simply clicked the button and it restored to the previous version.
So I figured it would be helpful to share the step-by-step guide on how you can rollback WordPress to undo updates (the easy way).
Fear of things breaking on the site is one of the big reasons why many beginners don't update their plugins.
But don't let that stop you because NOT updating plugins can impact your website's security.
Majority of the times, plugin updates don't break ... so just setup the rollback option and then update safely :)
