# Upgrading security.

 * There are some security updates recommended for WordPress blogs, which I’ve not
   done yet as I am unclear.
 * I have several blogs on one server ie., one main domain name and sub domains.
   I guess I don’t have to upgrade every blog individually. So do I just upgrade
   the folders in my first or main blog domain ie., my root files and folders?
 * Not sure where to send these updated security patches. Where do I place them?
 * Thanks

 * I’m a bit lost here. Are these security patches that you’ve created or are you
   just trying to upgrade your own blogs?
 * I’m thinkiing that you’re discussing the second one there. You may want to review
   the codex article on upgrading.

 * Hi drmike,
 * Many thanks for your reply,
 * Just upgrading to WP 2.1.2 for example.
 * I’ve previously read the upgrade info and digested it. However, it appears to
   give an example of upgrading for just one blog, if I read it correctly. Whereas
   I have several blogs on one server. I do not want to have to upgrade each one
   individually as I think this is impractical. I guess there must be a way to do
   this do this upgrade without having to do each and every blog. Am I correct in
   assuming this is the case?
 * If so, do I just do the upgrade for my main blog in the root domain?

 * I have several blogs on the same server, I always upgrade each one individually.

 * Thank you for the reply.
 * I know some people have many blogs, it must be a real hassle to upgrade each 
   one.
