Problem on website

[Ian J]

Checking my website https://factoringrecruitment.co.uk/ I noticed that it has a load of garbage on it before the website itself shows:-

I have had a look at this line 6085 and all it says is:- trigger_error( $message, $error_level );

As some of you may know I am absolutely clueless as far as the back end of websites is concerned and wonder if anyone can tell me if there is a simple fix for whatever the problem is

many thanks

Either your server has had PHP upgraded and your version of Wordpress is out of date, and is now broken - or your Wordpress version has been upgraded and isn't compatible with the version of PHP running on your hosting server.

Basically you need to check both of these, the PHP version with your hosting provider and the version of Wordpress your website is running on. Upgrade both (and perhaps your theme too) and you should be fine.

Just looked at the errors again, damnnnn, how old is your website? Wordpress is now on version 6.6 and the errors above were new in version 3.1 and you only just seeing them now

The site has been with the current host for about a year but the odd thing is that I have four sites with the same host all using the same wordpress theme and updated fairly regularly. I probably last looked at the "broken" site about a month ago and everything was fine then

I'm am very confident the cause of your issue is an 'update' has been applied. Whether that is a plugin, or Wordpress itself, or the server, something has been 'updated'

Have a look through the admin portal at the plugin list, and the WP version, and see when they were all last updated. That may help locate the issue.
You could also slowly work through your plugins disabling them one by one until the errors disappear.

It seems to have been a problem with a plugin as when they are all disabled it has gone away. Many thanks for your help

Hi

Sorry bit late to this but if not solved you may be able to find out the troublesome plugin by looking for a file called error_log in the public_html directory

It may give you an indicator the latest info is at the bottom.
