• I was following some instructions to remove ?doing_wp_cron from being being appended to my URLs. I made one change in the wp-config.php file and now my website is down. Server Error 500

    This is all I changed:

    /** HTTP Loopback Connections Disabled Fix */
    define(‘ALTERNATE_WP_CRON’, true);

    to

    /** HTTP Loopback Connections Disabled Fix */
    define(‘ALTERNATE_WP_CRON’, false);

    After changing this from true to false I changed it back to true and reuploaded the wp-config.php file and now the site is down. Please help!

    Here is the article on doing the fix:

    Site is back up, but some things are strange. I can’t log in through https://www.homecarepulse.com/wp-admin

    I have to use /wp-login.php

    Before I could just log on by going to /wp-admin.

    It seems that setting ALTERNATE_WP_CRON to false and reuploading the file caused the problem. I changed it back to true, but when I tried to upload the this version (which was identical to the original), it must not have worked. I tried uploading it again and finally got it to work.

    What a massive head-ache!!! I need to go somewhere and just breath.
