The ‘White Screen of Death’
![Page 3: WordPress Q&A](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051412/54b75e3c4a7959f9168b4630/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The ‘White Screen of Death’
The ‘White Screen of Death’ is exactly how it sounds. A simple blank white screen, with no errors! Aargh! It can be caused by numerous issues. !Try increasing the PHP Memory Limit !Deactivate all plugins !Change to one of the default WordPress themes !Enable Debug in your wp-config.php file

Dashboard Styles not Displaying
If your Dashboard looks like there’s no CSS styles applied, try adding the following to your wp-config.php file !define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false);!

Dealing with File Size Limits
![Page 7: WordPress Q&A](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051412/54b75e3c4a7959f9168b4630/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Dealing with File Size Limits
Create a php.ini file in your root folder Add the following lines & save !upload_max_filesize = 64M;!post_max_size = 64M;!!!If it doesn’t work after adding the file to the root folder, try moving it to the wp-admin folder. Different hosts have different restrictions so your experience may vary.

Running out of Memory
Two options: !Add the following line to your wp-config.php file define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', ‘256M');!!
- or - !Add the following line to your php.ini file memory_limit = 256M;

Turning on Debug to View Errors
Modify the following line in your wp-config.php file define(‘WP_DEBUG', true);

500 Server Errors
The HTTP 500 Internal Server is a very generic error so it often requires some troubleshooting. !Check for corrupt .htaccess file !Increase the PHP Memory Limit !Deactivate all plugins !Re-upload Core WordPress files !If all else fails, ask your website hosting provider
![Page 11: WordPress Q&A](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051412/54b75e3c4a7959f9168b4630/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Resetting your Permalinks
If you receive 404 errors or ‘This page doesn’t exist’, try resetting your permalinks. !To reset your Permalinks, click the Save Changes button on the Settings > Permalinks screen.

Avoid FTP Prompts
Sometimes when updating WordPress or installing a plugin, you’re prompted for FTP Details. !Ask your host to check/reset file permissions/ownership. If that fails, add the following to wp-config.php !define('FS_METHOD', 'ftpext');!define('FTP_BASE', '/path/to/wordpress/');!define('FTP_USER', 'username');!define('FTP_PASS', 'password');!define('FTP_HOST', 'host');!define('FTP_SSL', false);

Permission Errors
Permissions errors come in various forms. Most commonly, you’re unable to upload files/images. !In a Unix environment: !
- All files should be owned by the user's account - All directories should be 755 or 750. - All files should be 644 or 640.
Exception: wp-config.php should be 600 - No directories should ever be given 777
