Interacting with the Flywheel team

In the off chance issues arise with your updates, our team of Technical Account Specialists will jump into action, reverting to a pre-update backup if necessary. Your site will never remain down or suffer from visual problems.

If they aren’t able to proceed with the plugin updates manually, they will create a support ticket detailing the issue so you can take action.

You can access communications from the team directly from the banner at the top of your plugin update report by clicking the Resolve Issues button.

Read over the message and click Reply if you have questions or would like to discuss options with the Flywheel team.
