    Hi,

    I have been trying to get https://theeventscalendar.com/ to work on our site and every time I install it I start getting 500 error and/or “There has been a critical error on your website. Please check your site admin email” … when I’m logged in as the admin and I’m trying edit anything.

    The site works on the frontend and does not crash, however every other attempt to edit a page creates one of these errors. I continue to hit refresh until the site allows me to move forward.

    Please help!

    Thanks,

    Mike Watson

    Hi Mike,

    Please send us a temporary WordPress admin login and login URL so that we can have a closer look. You can post the details in the Private Content section of your reply.

    Best regards,

    Hi Team,

    I sent the requested information. I reinstalled The Events Calendar to ensure that you see both the 500 error and the critical error message that I receive when logged in as the admin and when I trying to do anything. It’s intermittent but it comes back as soon as I do activate the plugin.

    Thank you for your help.

    Oh by the way … that link in my last reply is not what’s installed. You will see it on the site.

    I installed the https:// theeventscalendar . com / :-) Not sure why that link gets hijacked :-)

    One more thing … if you encounter the errors trying to login, just keep hitting refresh until you can get in.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    Thanks for that. Does it make any difference it you disable all other plugins, or activate the parent theme?

    Best regards,

    Hi Rikard,

    The only time I have this issue is when I active the events plugin.

    I have not activated the parent theme. Only the child theme.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    Thank you for the info.

    There is a critical error in the site, so we are not able to access the dashboard. Please correct the issue or disable the plugin temporarily so that we could access the site, and post the FTP details in the private field so that we could debug the issue further.

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Hi Ismael,

    I deactivated the plugin. You can access the dashboard now. Check private for other info.

    Thank you for your help.

    Hi,

    Thank you for the info.

    We cannot access the file server using the account info above, unfortunately. Please check it carefully, or provide another login account and make sure that it is not limited to certain IP addresses and is accessible from these countries.

    This is a yahoo hosted account. Here are the directions on how to access their ftp. Let me know if this does not work with you ftp client.

    I was just able to access the server using YOUR login (the one that i sent in the private content area and these instructions.)

    Hi,

    Thank you for the info.

    Unfortunately, we are still not able to access the file server using the login account above. It is possible that the FTP account is limited to a certain IP address, and it is also possible that the country where we are trying to access it from is blocked. You may need to ask your hosting provider to check your server or ask them to configure the FTP account properly.

    We cannot enable the plugin without access to the file server because we might break the site without any means to revert it back to a working point.

    Best regards,

    Hi,

    Please advise me on what to look for here. (I have access)

    I am not sure why you cannot access the site but it most likely has something to do with Yahoo’s hosting. My client chose this awful host, not me so my apologies for it not working.

    I just tried activating the plugin again and as soon as I did from my admin login, the fatal error page popped up. It’s so frustrating as I really like that plugin and I love Enfold. I have over 20 sites running on the them and this is the first time I have ever had an issue like this.

    Let me know what to look for and I will try.

    ALSO: Is it possible to do a live Zoom or Google meet session so that someone from your org good guide me through what to do?

    Thanks,

    Michael

    Hi,

    Thank you for the update.

    We will try to help you debug the issue. First thing that we could do is set the installation to debug mode and enable the error logs so that we could check for any errors generated by the plugin. To do that, we have to edit the wp-config.php file and add this code.

    // Enable WP_DEBUG mode
    define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
    
    // Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file
    define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
    
    // Disable display of errors and warnings
    define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true);
    @ini_set( 'display_errors', 1 );
    
    // Use dev versions of core JS and CSS files (only needed if you are modifying these core files)
    define( 'SCRIPT_DEBUG', true );

    // https://wordpress.org/support/article/debugging-in-wordpress/#example-wp-config-php-for-debugging

    After adding the code, refresh the page, then activate the plugin again. Once the error occurs, look for any error messages in the screen or check the wp-content > debug.log file and post the error messages here.

    What is the current PHP version? You may need to upgrade it to version 7.3, or to version 8.0 if it is already available in your server.

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    It looks like we have a memory problem? If yes, I’ll ask the host to increase it.

    #1279618

    Hi team … I think I fixed it.

    1. Used your directions to debug
    2. Found that it was a critical error based on php memory limits
    3. Used Mozilla to edit the wp-config.php file
    4. It appears to be working :-)

    Thank you for helping me! The problem is that Yahoo has a file manager on their admin page that shows the files but it will not open wp-config.php . It opens every file but that one and their support team is as good as a rubber boat with a hole in it.

    Thank you for the guidance.
