Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my website uses WordPress 2.0?
Enter the URL in the checker. The homepage is read and the generator meta tag and the version in /wp-includes/ assets are checked. Some sites hide this data.
Is it dangerous to keep using WordPress 2.0 after support ends?
Without support, new vulnerabilities are not officially fixed, so the risk grows over time. It does not mean the site is compromised today.
How do I update WordPress?
Minor and security releases are installed automatically by default, but major version jumps and plugin compatibility depend on your configuration.
