    Have you tried to manually update the site, by downloading www.remarpro.com downloading and unpacking the zip before transfering to your own site via ftp/sftp?

    If i understood correctly, you suggest to update the wordpress manually.

    I’m trying to avoid this method, because my WP version is very old and there may be a lot of changes, so there is a high risk of failure.

    For plugins, I use the option to upload manually the zip with the plugin, it would be great if there was an option like this in the update procedure!

    If you have backed up your site (which you should do either approach) there is no real danger in manually updating and indeed for an older site prior to 3.7 would probably be the better route.

    OK, I will try the manual mode.

    Which method you suggest?

    To update with one step to the latest version OR to update with steps of two versions, e.g. 3.4.2->3.6->3.8->4.0->4.2->latest ?
