What issue or error are you experiencing? For a long time we will get this error while syncing. It is random, and happens on different networks. It has become more frequent recently and the only way to resolve is to remove the site then do a fresh sync from WPEngine. Leaving the site alone and synci…

Hi @DanCodes When you say “we” are you working with some kind of dev team?

For that I’m still apt to believe it’s an issue with the site’s overall size. If you’d still like us to take a deeper look, we’d…

Thanks, I will create a support ticket. Hopefully we can get a meaningful error that can be used to improve the tool so site size does not matter, and the experience is more reliable. We did a little more research and the aria-label.php file looks to be new to WordPress 6.8.x. Our hunch is this, P…
