17:17 UTC — Our platform team has informed us that they are shifting sites hosted in DFW to their real-time replicas in other origins due to facility cooling issues. No action is required from hosts or users. We are awaiting updates from the data center operator regarding the facility’s cooling systems.
No customer action is needed. Real-time failover is functioning as expected.
Additional information can be found here.
As of 15:10 UTC today we have removed WordPress version 7.0 from the Pressable platform and all sites still using that version have been automatically updated to WordPress 7.1.

Aug 26, 2026 10:28:00 AM EDT: As part of routine platform upgrade, some websites encountered an error, reverting them to a read-only state.
Affected sites continued to serve traffic, however they were unable to make changes to their filesystem, including File Uploads, Plugin/theme updates or installs, as well as other data changes to their filesystem.
The issue has been resolved and normal read/write access has resumed for all impacted sites. We are continuing to monitor the sites that were impacted and will be reviewing how the incident was able to occur.
23:45UTC: Pressable updated all sites to WordPress version 7.1, unless set to Previous (more info here).
The WP Rocket plugin caused a fatal on WordPress 7.1, so sites with version 3.23.2.1 or older of the WP Rocket plugin were kept on WordPress version 7.0 for now until WP Rocket releases an updated version compatible with 7.1 (UPDATE: WP Rocket released version 3.23.2.2 on August 20th to resolve the 7.1 fatal).
