That was it. We were running 5.3; upgraded to 5.6 and everything is now appearing normally.
Thank you, Rikard, John, and Mike. All of the help is truly and greatly appreciated.
I have also reinstalled Enfold with a fresh download via FTP since renaming all plugin folders, but still with no success. It still reports the error with the avia-shortcodes/comments.php file.
I cannot access the WP dashboard, so I had to do that by renaming the plugin folders; hopefully that will suffice. There are no plugins active; the error referencing an error in an Enfold file persists.
Fatal error: Declaration of avia_sc_comments_list::shortcode_handler() must be compatible with that of aviaShortcodeTemplate::shortcode_handler() in /home/content/34/9013334/html/wp-content/themes/enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/comments.php on line 14
I have done this, made sure to clear caches, and nothing has changed. The exact error remains. This occurs if I try to log in from /wp-admin.php or even if I try to access the website front-end. As of now our site is inaccessible and it is costing us daily business.
