Hi Obrmarketing,

The code you posted seems to have a different single quote, can you try to manually replace all those single quotes?

add_action('init', function() {
    avia_update_option('merge_css', 'none');
    avia_update_option('merge_js', 'none');
}, 10);

Best regards,
Nikko

Hi Obrmarketing,

Thanks, I was able to access it and it seems the reason why you are having this error is because you are using the latest version of WordPress (6.2.2) and Enfold 4.7.4 which has been released 3 years ago. The only way to fix this is to update to the latest version of Enfold (5.6.4) and you also need to update header.php and footer.php of your child theme.

Best regards,

Hi Obrmarketing,

1. Make a backup:
– Site Backup: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/backup-wordpress-site/
– Theme Settings Backup: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/backup-theme-settings/

2. Disable any caching or optimization plugins.
3. Update the theme via following options:
a. Update using Theme Update in Theme Options
b. Use Envato market plugin: https://envato.com/market-plugin/
c. Upload manually via Appearance > Themes and replace the old Enfold theme
d. Upload manually via cPanel or FTP
4. Review the updated staging site, if anything is messed up, go to Enfold > Theme Options > Performance, then disable CSS File Merging And Compression and Javascript File Merging And Compression

I hope this helps.

Best regards,

Hi Obrmarketing,

Can you make the permissions for the enfold folder writable?
It seems adding is allowed but replacing or removing is not permitted.
I tried changing the permission but is denied by the server.
Some files in Enfold might be corrupted so I am trying to replace those files with new ones but it only results to failed transfers.
If we have verified that there are no corrupted files, we will need to debug some files so we would need the files to be writable.

Best regards,
Nikko

Hi Obrmarketing,

I apologize for the delay.
The fatal error is fixed, please check.

Hi Obrmarketing,

For some reason $which_files instead of being a type of array, was type of string which was causing the issue.
I simply added this code:

if (is_string($which_files)) {
	$which_files = [];
}

above this line of code:

$which_files['css'] = $css_merging;

to make sure that $which_files is an array.

Best regards,
Nikko
