    Our site is a store selling products. We cannot access the Admin Dashboard (issue in separate thread). I have SSH remote access root access.

    How can I temporarily disallow purchases using only the SSH remote access root console?

    Thank you in advance!

    YOu can do this via wp-cli

    If there’s not a specific command for that, you can just disable the plugin.

    Our site’s problem had nothing what so ever to do with plugins. What a waste of my time!

    On January 24th PHP released a bug fix version 8.1.2. I applied that update on Jan 26th. Our site was running WP 5.8.3 at that time. Version 5.9 of WP released on Jan 26. The PHP update broke wp-login.php causing all my problems. Discovering this information took me many more hours than it should have, troubleshooting software issues is NOT my day job.

    The PHP update also broke WP-CLI so I was not able to manually update our site to WP 5.9. Our website has WP audo-updates enabled but that didn’t apply until last night.

    Administrator login is now working fine again. Such is life when living on the bleeding edge of technology evolution.

    I wouldn’t run 8.1 on a production server at this time.
