Hi Melissa. It looks like you need to update the Mailchimp add-on and also Gravity Forms. Is there a reason you are using versions that are so far out of date? It looks like your WordPress version is terribly out of date as well.

Hi Chris,

Thank you, I have wordpress 4.9.16, I can see that version 5.6.1 is available. I could update it but its an old website, I don’t currently have a web designer and I am managing it myself due to the current environment. Normally the wordpress updates itself after a while. I have a lot of plugins including the Mailchimp add-on and also Gravity Forms, I’m a bit scared to update the wordpress because sometimes plugins stop working.

Its not a new website and I am not a tech minded person so it’s difficult for me to know how to manage it all. Perhaps I should update the wordpress, this is what it’s saying in the admin.

If I do need to purchase, would the basic Gravity Forms $59 annual license cover these or would I need the Pro?

Basically its not letting me update the Mailchimp add-on and also Gravity Forms.

Best regards,
Melissa

I think the version wordpress 4.9.16 that I have isn’t that old.

Hi Melissa. A Basic license will cover Gravity Forms and the Mailchimp add-on. Your versions are very old and you really need to update. This may require the support of someone familiar with WordPress updates, like a developer of a consultant. Normally, with versions that old, you would have a staging site where you can first test the updates to be sure nothing else breaks, like the theme. I recommend trying to find some help with your site, so that things don’t get worse. I recommend checking here if you don’t have anyone local:
