Update failed whenever I update any plugin or theme

    I can’t update any plugin or theme. It says update failed: -1 and then directs me to a page that says briefly running scheduled maintenance for about 5 minutes before repeating the cycle again. Can someone please advise?

    WP.com: Unknown
    Jetpack: Yes

    Hi there,

    Apologies, but we can’t help with your issue directly because we don’t host sheltercraft.co.uk on our WordPress.com managed hosting.

    To explain, we are a fully managed hosting provider and use a custom server environment that is optimized for WordPress, provides built-in security and performance improvements, as well as in-house support for your site questions.

    Because of the way we’ve optimized our service, we also use a customized version of WordPress that is different (under the hood) from what you use at your current provider via Clouldflare DNS. As a result, we do not have access to your site and are not familiar with the source of your issue.

    You definitely have the option to move your site to us so we can provide in-house help, but as it stands now, we cannot help since it is hosted elsewhere. The good news is that help is available here at the open-source WordPress forums: https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/

    The folks in that forum are more familiar with these kinds of issues and are in the best position to help. Thanks!
