Free WordPress Automatic Upgrade In A Fly
Maintaining multiple blogs is not an easy task to do. In consequence of the frequent vulnerability found in blog platform software; frequent updates are also inevitable. If your blog is powered by WordPress then you are lucky as there is a WordPress Automatic Upgrade plugin. The plugin automates the manual process of upgrading a script.
The upgrade process done by the plugin:
1. Backs up the files and makes available a link to download it.
2. Backs up the database and makes available a link to download it.
3. Downloads the latest files from http://wordpress.org/latest.zip and unzips it.
4. Puts the site in maintenance mode.
5. De-activates all active plugins and remembers it.
6. Upgrades wordpress files.
7. Gives you a link that will open in a new window to upgrade installation.
8. Re-activates the plugins.

The above process could be run without any user intervention, but could also be run with a confirmation on each step. I find this plugin very helpful as the blog owner could upgrade WordPress with just a click of the button by themselves without any assistance.
You could download WordPress Automatic Upgrade plugin from the developer’s website http://techie-buzz.com/wordpress-plugins/wordpress-automatic-upgrade-plugin.html. Big thanks to techie-buzz for developing such a great plugin. It made my WordPress blog upgrade worry free and easy.
