WordPress Errors and Fixes
WordPress is all about transparency; someone reports and resolves most mistakes before the user. However, some common mistakes cause the customer to have a panic attack. Beginners have the opportunity to check these via numerous tutorials available. The ten most common WordPress errors and their respective fixes are described below:
- Syntax Errors occur when the user misses something or when the code has incorrect syntax while trying to add code snippets into WordPress. The result is a PHP parse error and is viewed as:
Parse error – syntax error, unexpected $end in /public_html/site1/wp- content/themes/my-theme/functions.php on line 263
The error message indicates an erroneous entity and its location in the code. To fix this, the correct syntax needs to be corrected. In most cases, the culprit is a missing bracket or some inaccurate, unexpected character in the code. - Internal Server Error: Also viewed as 500 Internal Server Error, this usually happens when the server cannot identify and recognize the problem. The user is left in the lurch to detect the problem independently.
- Database Connection Error: It is evident that the reason for viewing this error is the inability of connect a website with the database. It may spell doom for a novice, but it can be easily solved by correcting database login authorization (database host, password, and username). The cause may also be an unresponsive or corrupted database.
- 404 Error: Viewed when a user visits a single post; the next step is to browse through all site sections with the admin area, looking out for permalink settings. To resolve this issue, the user must reconfigure permalink settings or manually update their rewriting rules.
- The sidebar below Content Error: When the sidebar appears below instead of next to the content, the cause is related to themes. While adding code scraps, failing to close the HTML div tag or adding an extra closing div may cause breakage in the theme layout. Further, other triggers include using disproportionate width in CSS and not clearing the float appropriately.
- Memory Exhausted Error: The cause of this error is the depletion of the default allocated memory size limit and is indicated by a white screen or an error message: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 2348617 bytes) in /home/username/public_html/site1/wp- includes/plugin.php online xxx
- White Text and Missing Buttons Error: This problem occurs when concatenated JavaScript does not work in the user’s admin area, missing or corrupting TinyMCE files or issues with other plugins that modify or extend TinyMCE shipped with WordPress.
- Locked Out of WordPress: When a user forgets a password and has no access to the password recovery email, it may result in being locked out of the WordPress admin area. Additionally, a plugin or code that wrongly tries to make some changes to the admin section and the action of changing all usernames and passwords due to the hacking of the WordPress site may be the reason, too.
- Login Page Refresh and Redirecting Issue: When the user tries to log in to the WordPress dashboard and is redirected back to a login page, the user needs to check the values for the site URL and home URL in the options table.
- Image Upload Issue: Sometimes, all images are viewed as broken, and on uploading to a post using a media uploader, it results in an error, and all files appear as broken. This occurs due to incorrect file and directory permissions in an installation of WordPress.
Although this list is not exhaustive, these common errors and their solutions will enable the user to breeze through most of them.

Recently, it patched stored XSS vulnerability in version 6.5.6 or higher. According to Wordfence, the vulnerability in versions equal to or less than version 6.5.5 could have allowed an attacker obtaining administrator-level permissions and above to launch attacks against site visitors by injecting arbitrary malicious web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The highest-level vulnerability scored 4.4 out of 10, representing effects on specific kinds of installations; it only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html is disabled. The plugin’s earlier version lacked sufficient standard input sanitization and Output escaping, the process for securing, checking and filtering input data into a form field before it gets rendered for a user to ensure that what’s input is expected, like a text input instead of a script upload.
