Can i update wordpress version of my PHP5 customised wordpress site into latest wordpress version?

Can i update wordpress version of my PHP5 customised wordpress site into latest wordpress version? Now it is in 4.6 and i want to move it to 4.9.1. Any issues will be rised?
You can do it and mostly that will not cause any of issue. But before do WordPress update make sure you have to take backup for your databases once.
First of all take backup for database and make your full theme folder backup and store it as a zip , so if any issue will be raised then you directly unzip that as a theme and that will work fine.
If you have do your WordPress customization all in function.php file then your new WordPress will work perfect with your changes.
If your site have Woocomerce or other more useful plugin for front site then you should take backup for that also.
After WordPress update you may be find plugin update so do it one by one.

Wordpress cannot establish connection to wordpress.org

Hi I am a newbie in WP and I got the following error:
This happens when I tried to update plugins, go to plugin page, update wordpress etc.
Why this is happening?
My php is 7.0.
There can be many reasons for such problems, here are possible cases you can check:
Are you running in Localhost environment? Sometimes, when WordPress is not able to connect to wordpress.org server. It can show errors.
Some plugin/themes in your site in not compatible with php7, make sure all your plugins are compatible.
You can try disabling all plugins and switching to the default theme to see if the problem still persists.
Downgrade to lower PHP version ( PHP 5.6 ), to see if the problem still there.
Try updating WordPress manually- Delete all files in your website except wp-contents folder and wp-config file.
Get a fresh copy of deleted files from wordpress.org

What is the "Endurance Cache" feature in my WordPress website?

I noticed this new wordpress version I'm running has a "Endurance Cache" option at the bottom of the "Settings > General" page.
That is caching all of the changes I'm doing on css. So whenever I update something the changes don't reflect on the browser instantaneously.
I'm wondering if that's wordpress native or if I can remove it.
I'm using wordpress 4.8.1.
My other website that has an older wordpress version doesn't have it.
It's not listed as an installed plugin. So that I don't think it is.
I'm using thesis theme.
thanks
It is a plugin installed by hostgator. They install two plugins "Endurance Browser Cache" and "Endurance Page Cache."
You can disable the Endurance Page Cache plugin by going to "Plugins" > "Must-Use" then locating the "Endurance Page Cache" plugin and clicking "disable."
The other plugin called "Endurance Browser Cache" does not have a disable button.
I hope this works for you. I do not know if hostgator will remove these plugins for you.
Here is the easiest solution I found for it:
Log into your Cpanel and click on Files.
Choose your domain/subdomain and click on the WP-Content.
Click on the "mu-plugins".
Rename the File "endurance-page-cache.php" to "endurance-page-cache.php.old"
Create a blank file there and name it "endurance-page-cache.php"
That's it, problem solved. And if you ever in the future want to activate it again, simply delete the blank file that you created and remove the word "old" from the original file name.
I found the issue. It's a plugin installed by hostgator.
Unfortunately it's not listed in the wordpress plugins area.
So I needed to request them to remove it.
To get rid of Endurance Page Cache or whatever other mu-plugin that you don't need, you can now use Mu Manager.
After activation Go to Plugins => Must Use, and deactivate the unneeded mu-plugins that you don't need. It will be like deactivating standard plugins.
Of course, you should know which mu-plugin are not needed. In the case of Endurance Page Cache, I think you never need it if you have a proper caching plugin.
If you prefer to use FTP it will be not enough to rename the mu-plugin, because it will run the same. You need to delete it or replace the extension .php with something else.
This caching plugin was installed most probably by your hosting provider. A brief and quick solution to the problem:
Instal WP File Manager Plugin:
https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-file-manager/
Go to the plugin settings and head over to htdocs/WP Content/mu-plugins
Find the file "endurance-page-cache.php" and either rename it for temporal deactivation or delete it altogether if you want to get
rid of this plugin.
If this was the only file in the folder mu-plugins, you may as well delete the folder mu-plugins. "MU" stands for "Must Use". Sometimes a hosting provider or a developer might install their custom code for a site project as an mu-plugin so it doesn't get uninstalled by their customer.
Uninstall WP File Manager Plugin as it's not needed anymore. Better look on how to access your site files using C-panel if provided by your hosting provider or via FTP (like Filezilla) rather than a plugin.
Get a proper caching plugin. (Give Cachify plugin a go - it is free).

Upgrading to WooCommerce 3.1 not available?

My website is using WooCommerce 2.6.14, so I thought I should update to WooCommerce 3.1. The weird thing is that I don't see "Update now" button in the Plugins admin page:
Plugins page
And I can't manually update WooCommerce by overwriting the folder in FTP because it's not visible!
FTP
Any idea how can I update WooCommerce?
First back-up your WordPress site if you haven’t already.
Download a ZIP file of the plugin you need to upgrade.
Use FTP to delete the existing plugin directory from the wp-content/plugins/ directory on your site.
Replace the deleted directory by uploading the unzipped plugin to the wp-content/plugins/ directory leaving it in a directory that looks like (for example) wp-content/plugins/plugin-name
5.Sign in to your WordPress site. Go to the ‘Plugins’ menu and verify that the plugin you upgraded is the newest version.

WordPress blank page error

I installed WooCommerce and many plugins. It was all running well. Suddenly I started facing an issue at homepage. I removed everything and restored it by using the backup files taken by duplicator plugin.
I can’t see anything except a blank page. I can’t even access admin panel. Plugins are fine I tested by disabling all. Themes are creating issue. When I disable theme folder by renaming it, admin panel works. When I try to install new theme it doesn’t happen. I can’t even change theme. I don’t know what is exactly the issue.
