Brilliant! Thanks for sharing your knowledge
very informative and useful – thank you Dave
you rock Dave
Great vid, thanks. I'm sure I'll need it at some point. I'd not heard of the "plugin detective" – top tip!
Great tutorial, thank you! Btw, I thought I heard in the first sentence you said: "(…) if the update brexit" 😉
Welcome back! Can’t wait until your course become available again! 👍🏻
Great to see you again Dave. Another fine video. I've had the 'white screen of death' several times. Many thanks. Paul
I've only had the crap scared out of me a couple of times a few years ago, but as you said…Take a deep breath, be calm and work it out.
This is a really useful video mentioning some very useful tools. Always indebted to you for sharing your knowledge.
Fab Dave as always. Supplying solutions to problems just when we need them. 🤗
Another smashing tutorial of yours. Two thumbs up Dave !
Amazing coming-to-the-rescue-video by the brilliant Mr. Dave Foy!
Super helpful as usual. I like your attitude man👌
Welcome back, Dave. We have missed you. Thanks for the great video as always. The list of useful resources is a treasure.
Hi Dave, thanks for the great video! Broken code in a recent plugin update I did not only broke the site but brought the server to it's knees in a matter of seconds by flooding it with GET requests from a malformed URL. Not only was the site broken but all other sites went down too. I thought at first I was having a DOS attack! I couldn't even stay logged in long enough to deactivate the plugin – had to remove it manually, I discovered the problem looking at server logging.
Cool stuff. Wondering if there is a similar plugin or method to detect what plugin or theme was the culprit for a hacked site? Have my server offline for this test server running WP multisite but would like to try to see which way they entered as I am 99% sure it was not via hardended server.
Excellent production value! You've upped your game above all the others.
Been a while!!
He. Is. BACK!! Very well done Dave, you did some upgrades too I see. Cheers!
Great info Dave. WordPress scares me at times due to things breaking. This will help…
Wonderful! Great to have you back, Dave!
Awesome video Dave! You always make complex problems way more manageable. I'm glad you are back on YouTube!
A great help to troubleshoot plugin conflicts! So much combined help and up to date solutions and processes! Thank you!
Great video and a great tip, Dave! Thank you!
Just the other day I had a similar issue and had to disable the plugins one by one. Lesson learned, next time – ‘plugin detective’ will be put to work:)
Superb video Dave. Thanks a million
