[Updates] WordPress 3.3.2 Released


Monday, April 23rd, 2012 - Updates

WordPress has released version 3.3.2 of their popular blogging software. All WordPress users need to update to this version. This version is available in Softaculous in your cPanel. If you install WordPress through Softaculous in your cPanel, then you should consider updating that install through Softaculous in your cPanel.

Failure to update to version 3.3.2 – and continuing to keep your WordPress script up-to-date – can lead to your website being hacked and exploited! All WordPress users need to update.

This is also a good time to check for any plugins or themes that you are using on your WordPress site that may also need updating.
