  • Ah yeah I definitely misunderstood the question of the comment they were replying to. I only brought up CPanel because it’s extremely pervasive and is an example of how easy it is to host WordPress.

    On the flip side, you can upload plugins to install them and the plugins can be coded to use different servers for automatic updates. In fact, the most popular platform to buy paid plugins and themes, Envato, has a plugin to facilitate updates which don’t use the WP.org repo servers.

    Honestly, the plugin repo and “click to update” system is one of the biggest problems with the WP ecosystem. Since the vast majority of plugins and themes are horribly made and run by idiots, it’s very often that updates will break sites outright. That’s why I disable it for client accounts.

    Sorry I came off as rude. It was just a misunderstanding.
