    Went trying to customize the theme options, we are met with a 500 error message every time. We have disabled all unnecessary plugins, and we like some help to restore the website. Thanks.

    Hello, Jeovanni,

    There is a critical error on the page.
    1/ Please enable debug mode in WordPress – https://wordpress.org/support/article/debugging-in-wordpress/ to find out what error appears on your site, it will point you in the right direction what needs to be fixed.

    2/ Provide us with temporary wp-admin and FTP access.

    To grant WP-Admin access, please proceed to create a new user account with an administrator role through your WordPress Dashboard. Once the account is established, you may securely transmit the username and password to us via the Private Content section designated for this purpose.

    For FTP access, we require the following details: FTP host, FTP username, FTP password, FTP port, and FTP encryption type. If you need assistance in creating these credentials, please reach out to your hosting provider who will guide you through the process.

    Thank you for your cooperation and we look forward to hearing from you soon.

    Best Regards,
    8Theme’s Team

    Dear @Jeovanni,

    I hope this message finds you well. Thank you for sharing the error log with us. Upon review, it appears that the issue you are encountering is not related to our theme’s code but originates from WordPress itself.

    We recommend that you contact your hosting provider and request a reinstallation of WordPress on your website. Please ensure that you create a backup of your website before proceeding with the reinstallation to safeguard your data.

    Should you have any further questions or require additional assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out.

    Best regards,

    I don’t think this has to do with wordpress, as this error happened once i updated the xstore theme. Is there anything else that can be done besides reinstall?

    Thank you.
