Troubleshoot: Guidelines on WordPress Error

FluentCRM is a WordPress Plugin. A typical WordPress contains various Plugins to work with different types of features and may sometimes create issues working with different plugins, hosting environments, Caching Mechanisms, etc.

There are many types of errors that can occur in WordPress, such as:

1. Compatibility errors: These occur when a theme or plugin is not compatible with the version of WordPress or other themes/plugins that are installed.
2. Database errors: These occur when there is a problem with the database, such as a connection error or table corruption.
3. Permission errors: These occur when a file or folder on the server does not have the correct permissions set, preventing WordPress from accessing it.
4. Caching Errors: This is a common error that occurs when something causes the PHP code in WordPress to fail, resulting in a blank white screen instead of the expected output.

In this guide, we will try to troubleshoot and identify if anything seems to be not working, warning is presented and will also help us to collect information that can be forwarded to the Support to let the Support Investigate the issue.

Caching Issue #

If you are using Content Delivery Network(CDN) like Cloudflare, AWS Cloudfront, WordPress Plugins like WP Rocket, WP Fastest Cache, Advanced Caching, Web Server Caching like NGINX, Litespeed, Varnish, and a File & Database caching like Redis(Object Cache) then you may face caching issues sometimes.

A caching error in WordPress can occur when a caching plugin or service is not properly configured, or when there is a conflict with another plugin or theme. Some common symptoms of caching errors include:

1. Changes made to the website not being visible to visitors.
2. Website loading slowly or not at all.
3. Error messages appear on the website.
4. Plugin Update breaks the site or creates new issues.

To troubleshoot caching errors in WordPress, you can try the following:

1. Clear the cache: Clear the cache of the caching plugin or service you are using or clear the browser cache if you are using a browser caching plugin.
2. Disable caching: Temporarily disable the caching plugin or service to see if the error goes away.
3. Check for conflicts: Deactivate other plugins and switch to a default theme to see if a conflict is causing the error.
4. Check the plugin/service settings: Make sure the caching plugin or service is configured correctly and that the settings match your server and website requirements.
5. Check the error logs: Check your server error logs or the logs of the caching plugin or service for any error messages.
