Fix WordPress Cart & Updates

My live WordPress site suddenly lost its cart button and, at the same time, I can’t get any of the plugins to update through the dashboard. The storefront runs on a standard WordPress setup—no custom themes or bespoke plugins—so I’m looking for someone who can quickly zero-in on core or WooCommerce conflicts, database hiccups, or file-permission issues that might be hiding the button and blocking updates.

You’ll have full admin access and, if needed, FTP/cPanel credentials. Once you diagnose the root cause, I’d like the fix implemented on the production site and a brief note on what went wrong so I can avoid it in the future.

Deliverables
• Cart button visible and working on all pages
• All plugins updated to their latest stable versions (or clear explanation if any must stay on hold)
• One-page summary of steps taken and preventive recommendations

If you’re comfortable troubleshooting WordPress core, WooCommerce, PHP errors, and typical hosting constraints, I’d love to get this resolved today.
