This is a guide on how to fix the "updating failed" error on WordPress 5.2.3 and Cloudflare. 

As context, I am running my blog on Wordpress, hosted on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and using Cloudflare for my CDN (Content Delivery Network) to bring my content closer to my readers.

My key goals this year have been to update my blog to:

1. Ensure SSL and HTTPS is working correctly throughout the website to comply with Google's SEO requirements
2. Mixed Content is managed (so I am not showing content from both https:// and https:// sources, which affects my SEO)

You may have been thinking whether you can monetarise the photos that you have posted on your website.

So that instead of just storing all these images on your phone or computer, you can showcase them and actually sell them to magazines and bloggers using Symbiostock!
