functions.php empty after saving

  • We’re using WordPress 6.4.3 and a custom theme.

    After adding about 3 lines of code to the functions.php in the Theme Editor and hitting the save button I saw an error that something went wrong (I do not remember the exact message).

    Maybe I entered some invalid PHP code but I am not sure about this.

    Result was that the functions.php was completely empty. Our site wasn’t working anymore. Admin area remained working normally. After pasting a three weeks old version of functions.php in Theme Editor I made it working again.

    I wasn’t able to reproduce this issue in the staging environment.

    Is this a known issue? Is there anything we can do to assure that this does not occur again in the future?

    error that something went wrong (I do not remember the exact message).

    This could be due to a simple internet connection issue, or may be the server is temporarily offline, etc. This sort of connectivity issue usually resolves itself after a while.

    I made it working again
