Internal Server errors with WP 4.7.1

Thanks for that, I will try increasing the memory. Thanks for the directions to find the new topic (I shall look for that now). Cheers Lynandrog.

I really must be blind… I cannot see where to start a new topic (that really doesn’t matter). I hope I have less trouble inserting the code you suggested. I do have a question though, do I need to be working on a child theme to be to change the memory limit? Thanks for your help, by the way.

I didn’t have to change the memory limit (well not yet anyway). I just removed the plugin from the plugins folder in cPanel, went back into the site, then put it back into the plugins folder in cPanel and went back to the site in order to activate it. When I got there, there was an update, so I updated and, voila, it works. Thank you to whoever did the update!

Hmmm, just went into the site to do a ‘duplicator’ backup of the site and it looks as though there is still some sort of conflict going on. It gives me the ‘-500 internal server error’ every time I try to create a new backup.

Any ideas how to fix this other than deactivating the ‘the events calendar’, backing up and then activating it again? Sort of defeats the purpose of the backup really if the site isn’t fully intact.

BTW everything is up to date except ‘the events calendar’. I wanted to try to do the backup before I updated to 4.5.6 (call me a scaredy cat, but after the last episode I just wanted to be safe rather than sorry).
