Backlight 2 Wordpress Module...
Hi Folks
I have had a long look and tried many things but I can't get my WP Theme to work at all.
Selected a Page for the Theme -> Exported Theme Successfully to WP -> The Theme shows in WP list but when doing a Live Preview or on Activation I get "The site is experiencing technical difficulties. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions."
All the sample themes work fine.
I am obviously missing something...
Cheers
Jeff

Re: Backlight 2 Wordpress Module...
Is WordPress up to date?
Are Backlight and the WordPress module up to date?
Are all plugins up to date?
Are there any plugins that haven’t been updated by the developer in a long time?
Could there be a plugin conflict?
Try disabling all plugins.
If the theme activates without error, activate plugins one by one until you get an error.

Hi Rod
"WordPress Updates
Last checked on June 10, 2019 at 10:38 pm. Check Again
You have the latest version of WordPress. Future security updates will be applied automatically.
If you need to re-install version 5.2.1, you can do so here:
Plugins
Your plugins are all up to date.
Themes
Your themes are all up to date."
I have disabled all the plugins anyway, but still no joy.

Re: Backlight 2 Wordpress Module...
He may have meant phplugins. Check the page template you’re using for your theme. It’s under Advanced Setup.
Usually, phplugins won’t disable a theme, but it’s something to check.

Re: Backlight 2 Wordpress Module...
The setup seems to be fine - WP forums suggest a server restart after the upgrade to the latest, so I might get my Hosting to do that... Thanks Guys

Re: Backlight 2 Wordpress Module...
Rod - actually the php plugin did disable my site - I was trying to use the page scroll up function on the WP page similar to all of the other pages and galleries on my site, but it failed. When I disabled it the WP page worked fine. I’m ok with it disabled on that page so no big deal. Just thought you’d like to know.
