WordPress Major Version Upgrade

WordPress major version upgrades (like 6.x to 7.x) can break plugins, themes, and customizations. We handle the upgrade safely — testing on staging first, fixing any issues, and applying to production with zero downtime.

Need this done for your project?

We implement, you ship. Async, documented, done in days.

Start a Brief

What Can Break in a Major Upgrade

  • Block editor changes — New Gutenberg features may conflict with classic editor plugins or custom blocks.
  • REST API changes — Custom integrations using the WP REST API may need updating.
  • Theme compatibility — Older themes may not support new WordPress features (Full Site Editing, block themes).
  • Plugin deprecations — Plugins using deprecated WordPress functions will throw errors or crash.
  • PHP requirements — New WordPress versions may require a newer PHP version.
