Unfortunately - the default ubuntu install is a bit too broken to allow for an automated update in general.


==Core + Plugin updates==
==Prerequisites==
Follow the following process
# [https://makerspaceleiden.nl/wp-admin Log into WordPress] with a user that has administrator access.
# Navigate to the [https://makerspaceleiden.nl/wp-admin/update-core.php 'Updates' page]<br  />
# Review the available updates. <br  />
# Work through the updates one at a time starting from smallest updates, minor and patch releases.


== Large updates ==
* WordPress admin credentials
* Hetzner konsoleH credentials


The manual update process for simple releases is as follows:
==Major Releases of WordPress Core==


0) Read the rel notes https://codex.wordpress.org/Version_VERSION (substitute the right version number for VERSION)
# Read the releases notes https://codex.wordpress.org/Version_VERSION (substitute the right version number for VERSION)
# Consider making a backup of the database. This can be done via the Hetzner konsoleH control panel.
# Apply update using the [https://makerspaceleiden.nl/wp-admin/update-core.php Updates page]
# Cursory tests and declare victory.
# Then let the mailing list know and ask people to be on the alert for issues.


1) Consider making a backup of the database:
==Minor Core + Plugin updates==
 
Follow the following process
    umask 077
# [https://makerspaceleiden.nl/wp-admin Log into WordPress] with a user that has administrator access.
    mysqldump  --single-transaction --quick --lock-tables=false wordpress > ~/wordpress-pre-VERSION.sql
# Navigate to the [https://makerspaceleiden.nl/wp-admin/update-core.php 'Updates' page]
 
# Review the available updates.
2) Fetch a recent copy from https://wordpress.org/download/releases, check, unpacked and _rename_ it:
# Work through the updates one at a time starting from smallest updates, minor and patch releases.
 
Warning - do not do this in /usr/share - as it unpacks in wordpress rather than something version number namespaced.
 
    curl -O https://wordpress.org/wordpress-VERSION.tar.gz
    openssl sha1 wordpress-VERSION.tar.gz
    tar zxf wordpress-VERSION.tar.gz
    sudo mv wordpress /usr/share/wordpress-VERSION
 
3) Get some permission sanity
 
    cd /usr/share
    sudo chgrp -R www-data wordpressVERSION
    sudo chmod -R o-rwx wordpress-VERSION
 
4) Take risk (after scanning the release notes) and copy the old config across
 
    sudo cp wordpress-4.9.7/wp-config.php wordpress-4.9.8
 
And link it in
 
    ln -s /usr/share/wordpress-VERSION /usr/share/wordpress
 
5) Test cursory and declared victory. Then let the mailing list know and ask people to be on the alert for issues.
