A practice website using Wordpress on Lightsail

Website Maintenance December 2025

  • Updated wordpress to 6.9
  • Update themes
  • Update plugins
  • Snapshotted the lightsail instance before
  • Snapshotted the lightsail instance after
  • deleted hundreds of spam comments in the pending queue
  • Noticed that the php version needs an update — that is annoying, because I think I will get stuck at lightsail again (just add a new instance…). Adding a new instance only works if you have offboarded the database, which I have not done for this installation.
  • TODO: offboard the database
  • TODO: play with SEO
