Different kind of problems

WordPress Questions
1

Hi all!

I’m creating a website for a client through Local. I use elementor pro. Now I have several problems that I cannot solve.

Firstly, I get the error message as shown in the image. This problem arose when I wanted to push the website to a demo.

Another problem I encounter is that I see a difference on the demo compared to the website on the local environment. I have already read through many messages trying to solve the problem. Unfortunately, nothing has worked yet.

It would be nice if someone could help me.

Hi @Stefangroot

The simple solution for this might be closing Local, and then doing a full reboot.

If you’re still having trouble, see if you can create a new, blank site in Local and start that okay. If you can, then you may want to try reimporting the site getting the errors. The steps would look like this:

  • Locate the site files on your machine, and save a copy of them to your desktop. If you click Go to Site Folder under your site name it should take you right to where they are located.
  • Once you have those copied, completely delete the site from Local
  • Restart Local/your machine
  • Reimport the site back into Local. You can refer here on how to Restore from only Local site files

As far as the differences between Local and your Demo, it’s likely caching and mixed content.

On your Demo site you’ll want to make sure to flush the cache in your Flywheel dashboard, regenerate the CSS in your Elementor plugin/theme, and then check your dev console to see if there is any mixed content that needs fixed up (HTTP > HTTPS mismatches). You can use a plugin like Better Search Replace to fix those up.

Thanks for your fast reply Nick!

I downloaded Really Simple Security and Better Search Replace. I think it’s resolved. Thank you for that!

Now I only get a 500 error when I want to save. Do you know how I can fix this?

Kind regards

A 500 error could be a timeout or resource issue. You might check some of our performance recommendations here: Troubleshoot: Performance Issues - Local

It doesn’t help… You might be able to see something in my log file??

Really thanks for your help!

There is a fatal error in your PHP log for Wordfence, so you could try disabling that and see if the problem persists. If it does you then might try disabling all of your plugins to see if the problem stops. If it does then you can turn the plugins back on one at a time to see when it comes back.

The 500 error has been fixed when I disabled all plugins. Unfortunately, the website is still completely different in demo mode. I would like to go live, but that is really not possible if the differences will also be visible on the new website. Could it be that it is only visible in the demo environment, but that when I officially push the website, the problems are fixed? What can I do?

You’ll need to narrow down what the problems are. They could just be caching, or mixed content, or a configuration mismatch. The details in my comment above would be a good place to start.
