One-Click Module Updates

Applies to: Codeless

Overview

One-click module updates let Codeless owners install vetted Drupal module updates from the dashboard — security and bug fixes without SSH or Composer. A module is a packaged feature (contact forms, SEO tools, etc.) maintained by the Drupal community.

Key concepts

  • Contrib module — community extension FlexSite allows on Codeless (not custom agency code).
  • Update badge — alert on Overview when updates are available.
  • Deployment — FlexSite applies the update and may restart services briefly.

Steps

  1. Open project or environment Overview when an update badge or advisory appears.
  2. Open the module updates section (wording may be “Updates available”).
  3. Read the list — note module names and version jumps.
  4. Click Update on one module, or Update all if your policy allows.
  5. Wait for deployment to complete.
  6. Quick Login → Extend to confirm versions if you are verifying manually.

Safety workflow

  1. Apply updates on dev or staging first.
  2. Editors smoke-test critical forms and pages.
  3. Sync Environment to production when satisfied.

Platform may snapshot before updates — see Backups.

Limits

  • Custom modules and FlexLab Composer packages are not managed here.
  • Major Drupal core upgrades follow FlexSite maintenance windows — watch advisories.

If an update fails, read environment Overview banners before retrying.
