I have found that Version 3.4.3 of Co-Authors Plus causes conflicts with Elementor page builder. Widgets dont load, also getting 500 errors
WP version: 5.5.1

Hector,
Yes, something is a little funny. I appreciate that you took the time to check into this for me.

there is some plugin conflict but it is hard to find. If I disable all my plugins at once, I get the error on line 43. If I start disabling plugins randomly, then it crashes when most of the plugins have been disabled, but it crashes on a different plugin every time. Unusual problem. Any ideas?

I am working on this. When I deactivated all pluging, I got the same error so it may be a plugin conflict

I still have a problem in troubleshooting mode. When I turn it on, i get this error

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function is_plugin_active() in /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-content/themes/generatepress_child/functions.php:43 Stack trace: #0 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-content/themes/generatepress_child/functions.php(65): get_popular_posts_ids(‘last30days’, 5) #1 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-settings.php(514): include(‘/home/dulcie/pu…’) #2 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-config.php(128): require_once(‘/home/dulcie/pu…’) #3 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-load.php(37): require_once(‘/home/dulcie/pu…’) #4 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-admin/admin.php(34): require_once(‘/home/dulcie/pu…’) #5 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-admin/index.php(10): require_once(‘/home/dulcie/pu…’) #6 {main} thrown in /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-content/themes/generatepress_child/functions.php on line 43

line 43 is
if ( is_plugin_active(‘wordpress-popular-posts/wordpress-popular-posts.php’) ) {

If I disable the WP Popular posts plugin, all is fine.

It is under tools > site health> troubleshooing mode
I am not quite sure but I think it turns off all your plugins and you can turn them on individually to test problems.

the error is

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class ‘WordPressPopularPosts\Query’ not found in /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-content/themes/generatepress_child/functions.php:43 Stack trace: #0 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-content/themes/generatepress_child/functions.php(62): get_popular_posts_ids(‘last30days’, 5) #1 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-settings.php(514): include(‘/home/dulcie/pu…’) #2 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-config.php(128): require_once(‘/home/dulcie/pu…’) #3 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-load.php(37): require_once(‘/home/dulcie/pu…’) #4 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-admin/admin.php(34): require_once(‘/home/dulcie/pu…’) #5 /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-admin/index.php(10): require_once(‘/home/dulcie/pu…’) #6 {main} thrown in /home/dulcie/public_html/wp-content/themes/generatepress_child/functions.php on line 43

it starts at line 39
this is line 43
$query = new \WordPressPopularPosts\Query([
————————————–
function get_popular_posts_ids($range = ‘last7days’, $limit = 10, $pid = ‘16817,6620’)

$query = new \WordPressPopularPosts\Query([

// Popular posts found, get their IDs

return $post_IDs;
}

Hector,
I want to thank you for your response. This works well. IF you want to see it, it is in the section: This months most popular, in the center of the page
https://www.passblue.com/

but I believe i found an issue that I want to ask you about. When I click on troubleshooting mode, this I get a fatal error in the code. I have to comment out the code in functions to get the site back. I would guess that the code is looking for the plugin, which can not be found. Is there a way to solve that problem?

Thanks,
John

Héctor,
Thanks for your response. My technical skills are not very deep. Can you give me any insight into how I can install the class in my child them and loop the array?
I appreciate any help you could provide.
Thanks,
John Penney

John-Paul,

Resetting the permalinks did the job!
Thank you for sharing your expertise. I appreciate your kindness.
