    Here it goes:
    – one of my sites was auto-updated to 5.9 (still have to figure out why ??
    – trying to access it, produced an error “Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 41943040 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 72 bytes) in /raid/home/harmony/harmonyfdn/wp-content/plugins/social-icons-widget-by-wpzoom/includes/icons-data.php on line 14206”
    – I tried to allocate more memory to WP
    – can’t access /wp-admin either
    – I re-named “plugins” to “plugins.hold”
    – now I can access the site (without plugin features) but /wp-admin produces “There has been a critical error on this website.”

    Q: is there another way to get to my dashboard to work on the plugins, likely social-icons-widget-by-wpzoom

    Thank you, Stephan

    … after trying to allocate more memory to the site by adding “define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’);” to the wp-config.php to no avail, I talked to my hosting provider and they allocated additional memory to PHP … I don’t know how exactly they did that, but everything is back to normal. They indicated that it might be possible that during the wp 5.9 install the process got corrupted due to PHP memory limits?

    conclusion: support your local providers and put their availability to use ??

    thank y’all.
