Death<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A WordPress website that suddenly displays a completely blank white page can be alarming. You may see no error message, no WordPress dashboard, and sometimes not even the normal website header or footer. This problem is commonly known as the <strong>WordPress White Screen of Death (WSOD)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The good news is that a white screen does not necessarily mean your website is permanently damaged. In many cases, the problem is caused by a faulty plugin, incompatible theme, exhausted PHP memory, a PHP error, or a recent configuration change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This guide explains the most common causes of the WordPress White Screen of Death and provides practical methods to troubleshoot and restore your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_the_WordPress_White_Screen_of_Death\"><\/span>What Is the WordPress White Screen of Death?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The WordPress White Screen of Death occurs when WordPress encounters a serious PHP error but cannot display the normal page or an error message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead of your website, visitors may see:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A completely blank white page<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A partially loaded page<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A blank WordPress admin dashboard<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A generic server error<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A page that stops loading after a recent update<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The issue can affect:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The entire website<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Only the WordPress admin area<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A particular page or post<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The website after installing a plugin<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The website after changing the theme<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The website after updating WordPress or PHP<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Causes_of_the_WordPress_White_Screen\"><\/span>Common Causes of the WordPress White Screen<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before troubleshooting, it helps to understand what can trigger the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Plugin_conflict\"><\/span>1.

lack of PHP memory can cause WordPress to stop executing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can try increasing the WordPress memory allocation in <code>wp-config.php<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Add the following before the line that says:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>\/* That's all, stop editing!

Your hosting provider or PHP configuration may impose a lower limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After making the change, test the website again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr

Version<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A PHP version change can sometimes cause compatibility problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, an older plugin may contain code that is incompatible with a newer PHP version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check your hosting control panel for the configured PHP version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the white screen appeared immediately after changing PHP versions, temporarily switch back to the previously working version if your hosting environment supports it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Check the plugin documentation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Update outdated plugins.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Update the theme.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check WordPress compatibility.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Move to a supported PHP version once compatibility issues are resolved.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Avoid staying on an obsolete PHP version permanently simply because it makes an old plugin work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr

Log<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your hosting account may provide a separate PHP or server error log.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on your hosting environment, it may be available through:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>cPanel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>DirectAdmin<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hosting File Manager<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Server logs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PHP-FPM logs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Look for errors generated at approximately the time the white screen appeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Typical messages may contain terms such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>PHP Fatal error\nAllowed memory size exhausted\nCall to undefined function\nCall to undefined method\nCannot redeclare function\nParse error\nUncaught Error<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The filename and line number are particularly useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>\/wp-content\/themes\/example\/functions.php on line 125<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This points you toward the likely

id=\"Step_8_Check_Recently_Modified_Files\"><\/span>Step 8: Check Recently Modified Files<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Think about what changed immediately before the website stopped working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Common triggers include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Installing a plugin<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Updating a plugin<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Updating a theme<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Editing <code>functions.php<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Changing PHP versions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Modifying

File<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Custom code added to a theme&#8217;s <code>functions.php<\/code> file can cause a fatal PHP error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, an accidental syntax error such as a missing semicolon can break the website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you recently edited:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>wp-content\/themes\/your-theme\/functions.php<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">review your changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If possible, restore the previous working version from a backup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Avoid adding untested PHP code directly to a production

not responsible, the WordPress core files may be damaged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can reinstall the WordPress core files without intentionally removing your content, provided you follow the correct process and have a backup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before proceeding:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Back up your

<code>wp-content<\/code>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Preserve your <code>wp-config.php<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Be especially careful when replacing files manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you use a hosting control panel or WordPress management tool, it may provide a built-in option to repair or reinstall WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

WordPress update can fail partway through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check whether the website contains a file named:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>.maintenance<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">in the WordPress root directory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If WordPress is stuck in maintenance mode after an interrupted update, removing the <code>.maintenance<\/code> file may restore normal loading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only remove it if you have confirmed that the update is no longer actively running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Afterward, check the WordPress dashboard and complete any pending updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr

File and Folder Permissions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Incorrect permissions can prevent WordPress from reading or executing files properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Typical WordPress permissions are commonly configured around:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>Directories: 755\nFiles: 644<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the correct settings can vary depending on your hosting environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not blindly change permissions on the entire server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If permissions were recently changed and the website stopped working afterward, compare them with your hosting provider&#8217;s recommended configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

<code>.htaccess<\/code> file can cause website problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, create a backup of the existing file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then rename:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>.htaccess<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre

can occasionally be related to database problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check your database status through your hosting control panel or database management tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before repairing a database, make a backup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your hosting environment provides WordPress database repair tools, use them carefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress also includes a database repair feature that can be enabled temporarily through <code>wp-config.php<\/code>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If troubleshooting does not identify the problem and the website was working correctly before a recent change, restoring a known-good backup may be the fastest recovery option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on your hosting setup, you may have backups for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Website files<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Database<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Full hosting account<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Daily snapshots<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remote backups<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ideally, restore the website to a point immediately before the problem appeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After restoration, identify what caused the original issue before repeating the update or configuration change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A useful troubleshooting sequence is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>White Screen\n     \u2193\nEnable WordPress Debug Log\n     \u2193\nCheck PHP\/Server

Thoughts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The WordPress White Screen of Death is usually a symptom of an underlying PHP, plugin, theme, configuration, or server problem rather than a problem with WordPress itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most effective approach is systematic troubleshooting. Start by checking the debug and server logs, then investigate recently changed plugins, themes, PHP versions, memory limits, and custom code. If the problem cannot be isolated, a reliable backup provides an important recovery option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For production websites, maintaining regular backups, using compatible plugins and themes, monitoring hosting resources, and testing major changes on a staging environment can significantly reduce the risk of extended downtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a structured troubleshooting process, most WordPress white-screen problems can be identified and resolved without rebuilding the entire website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"How to Fix WordPress White Screen of Death A WordPress website that suddenly displays a completely blank white&hellip;","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[134],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2694","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-wordpress-web-hosting","cs-entry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How to Fix WordPress White Screen of Death?
