At Search Engine Genie, we understand how frustrating it can be when your WordPress website encounters errors that disrupt its functionality.

Our WordPress error fixing services are designed to provide reliable, fast solutions for all kinds of WordPress errors. We ensure that your website is running smoothly and securely with minimal downtime. Let's explore the most common WordPress errors and how we can help you fix them efficiently.
1. White Screen of Death (WSOD)
The White Screen of Death (WSOD) is one of the most dreaded errors in WordPress. When this happens, your website goes completely blank with no error message, making it difficult to pinpoint the problem. This error is typically caused by plugin or theme conflicts, PHP memory limits, or corrupted files.
How We Fix WSOD:
- Debugging the cause: Our team will check the error logs, debug mode, and plugin/theme conflicts to identify the root cause of the WSOD.
- Increasing PHP memory: Often, WSOD is caused by insufficient memory. We'll increase your site's PHP memory limit to ensure smooth performance.
- Disabling conflicting plugins/themes: If a plugin or theme is the cause of the error, we'll deactivate and troubleshoot it to restore the site's functionality.
- Restoring corrupted files: If the issue is caused by corrupted core files, we'll replace them with clean versions from the WordPress repository.
With our WSOD fix service, you can rest assured that your site will be restored promptly with minimal downtime.
2. 500 / 403 / 404 Errors
HTTP errors like 500 (Internal Server Error), 403 (Forbidden Error), and 404 (Page Not Found Error) can cause significant disruptions to your website. These errors can be confusing and frustrating for both website owners and users.
500 Internal Server Error:
A 500 error is a generic message indicating that something went wrong on the server side. It could be due to plugin conflicts, corrupted .htaccess files, server overload, or issues with PHP versions.
403 Forbidden Error:
The 403 error typically appears when the server refuses to give access to a specific page or resource. This could be due to incorrect file permissions, security plugin misconfigurations, or IP blocking.
404 Page Not Found Error:
The 404 error happens when a user tries to access a page that doesn't exist or has been moved. This can be caused by incorrect permalinks, missing pages, or broken links.
How We Fix 500, 403, 404 Errors:
- Detailed error analysis: Our experts will look at error logs and server configurations to understand the cause of the HTTP error.
- Fixing corrupted .htaccess files: We will regenerate the .htaccess file, a common cause of 500 errors.
- File permission adjustments: We'll ensure that the correct file permissions are set for your WordPress installation to resolve the 403 error.
- Redirects and permalink fixes: If you'll seeing 404 errors, we'll correct broken links and adjust permalinks to ensure all pages and posts are accessible.
- Server diagnostics: Our team will check your server settings to resolve any server-related issues causing the 500 error.
With our expertize, we'll get your site back to its full potential by resolving any of these HTTP errors effectively.
3. Database Connection Errors
A database connection error can be one of the most critical issues on your WordPress site. It occurs when WordPress cannot connect to the database due to incorrect login credentials, a corrupted database, or server-related issues.
How We Fix Database Connection Errors:
- Checking wp-config.php: We'll verify that your wp-config.php file contains the correct database name, username, password, and host information.
- Repairing the database: If the database is corrupted, we'll repair it using WordPress's built-in repair tools or by manually running SQL queries.
- Restoring from backup: If the error persists, we'll restore your database from the most recent backup to get your site back online quickly.
- Server diagnostics: We'll check if the database server is functioning properly, addressing any connectivity issues caused by server settings or downtime.
Our database error resolution ensures your website is always able to communicate with the database, maintaining data integrity and smooth operation.
4. PHP Warnings & Fatal Errors
PHP warnings and fatal errors are common issues in WordPress that are usually caused by plugin/theme conflicts, outdated PHP versions, or code bugs. PHP warnings can clutter your site's front end, and fatal errors can take your site down entirely.
How We Fix PHP Warnings & Fatal Errors:
- Analyzing error logs: We examine PHP error logs to identify the source of the issue, be it a plugin, theme, or incompatible PHP version.
- Updating PHP version: Our team ensures that your WordPress site is running the latest stable version of PHP for better compatibility and performance.
- Fixing plugin/theme conflicts: If the issue is caused by a plugin or theme, we'll disable the problematic one and look for a fix or alternative.
- Code optimization: We'll optimize your theme and plugin code to remove deprecated functions and improve compatibility with the latest PHP versions.
- Enabling PHP debugging: If necessary, we'll enable WP_DEBUG to display PHP errors and find solutions faster.
By resolving PHP warnings and fatal errors, we ensure that your WordPress website runs efficiently without causing frustration to users or search engines.
5. Plugin/Theme Conflict Resolution
Plugin and theme conflicts are one of the most common causes of WordPress errors. When two or more plugins or themes don't play well together, they can result in errors like the White Screen of Death, 500 errors, or issues with page layout and functionality.
How We Resolve Plugin/Theme Conflicts:
- Systematic plugin/theme deactivation: We'll deactivate your plugins and themes one by one to identify the conflict and pinpoint the cause.
- Switching themes: If the problem persists, we'll switch to the default WordPress theme (Twenty Twenty-One) to determine if the theme is the issue.
- Updating plugins/themes: We'll ensure that all your plugins and themes are up-to-date, as outdated versions can cause compatibility issues.
- Using alternative plugins: If the issue persists after resolving conflicts, we'll recommend alternative plugins or themes that offer the same functionality but are more compatible.
Our plugin and theme conflict resolution services guarantee a smooth experience for your users and avoid downtime caused by these common issues.
