Appoint ClickWP as your WP Engine Technical Contact
Technical Contacts are different from User Portal users (above). Technical Contacts are the persons that WP Engine will notify regarding critical security information, warnings about issues that could cause downtime, server migration notifications, or DNS updates.
If you worry that you don't understand these notifications from WP Engine, you can have ClickWP be notified too so we can help interpret these messages and let you know if there is anything concerning.
To add ClickWP as a technical contact, navigate to https://my.wpengine.com/contacts and adding hello@clickwp.com. Please note that only account owners can edit Technical Contacts.
