  • Hi @chall57444,

    There is a possibility an error is occuring because of a just installed plug-in.
    To roll back a plug-in is to disable and delete the plug-in, you can do this via FTP.

    Login into FTP and go to wp-content/plugins find the folder which is being used for the plug-in. Change the name of the folder with _OLD at the end.
    This will disable the plug-in being used, test the website if it runs normal again.

    Thanks for your reply. I’ll pass it on to my daughter as it’s all a bit beyond me!

    There is a plugin available that will roll back plugins to a previous version. Sometimes an update to a plugin can cause problems. Just go to the admin page ‘Installed Plugins’ and search for WP Rollback in ‘Add New’

    It’s not really a long term solution though!

    Just installed the plug-in and rolled back. Hasn’t helped I’m afraid. Any more ideas or help will be much appreciated.

    Enable wp_debug in wp-config.php and see if an error is showing up on the website.
