# Updates from WP Dashboard

The plugin also has automated updates integrated directly into the WordPress admin panel. It will automatically check for the new version in the background, and when the update is available, you will see the updates counter in the top bar in the admin panel increased by one. In the same way as with other updates.

Open the ***Dashboard*** --> ***Updates*** page and scroll to an ***Argus Components*** section. You will see different tests in preparation for the update.

{% hint style="danger" %}
If a critical test fails, it will block the update process. For example, if a PHP version does not match the new version of the plugin, break the website.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
If a failed test is not critical, you will see a notification, but the update will be available for installation. For example, if the Elementor version does not match, the plugin will continue functioning, but Elementor widgets might not work correctly.
{% endhint %}

You still have the option to download the zip archive from Envato and update the plugin manually.
