My solution was to go to the Cpanel. My hosting environment includes Softaculous, which is a software install and maintenance package. After backing up, I pushed the upgrade button and it did the WordPress upgrade on the server. That did not require any downloads / uploads or worries about site content. The plugins can all be updated from the Plugins menu at the wordpress site admin area. I wonder when WordPress will fix the upgrade problem. It seems to have started with 5.xxx.

I just installed this plugin because it can cloak emails AND other text (phone numbers). This is fantastic since then, I won’t be responsible for more robocalls to my users. If you keep the shortcodes the same, it will be easy to switch.

Thank you for a great plugin!!!

I’m trying this also. My idea is to move the live site to a subdomain like xx.site.com Then I can work on an updated site.com . Unfortunately, there does not seem to be a way to recover the data into a newly named database. So, it rebuilds the database into that location and removes the old one. Both can’t seem to exist under the same domain.
