I updated to the latest version of X (6.5.6) and it broke my dashboard for colaclash.org. I can see the menu on the left and can use the topbar navigation, but I cannot see any content. It doesn’t seem to have affected the front end of the site.
Update: I even switched the theme to one of the 201X themes and the dashboard worked properly again. After that, I quickly updated to Wordpress 5.2, and switched back to the X theme. Dashboard still doesn’t work. I tried updating my php to 7.2, but that doesn’t fix it.
Update: The new Wordpress tools sent an email to me saying that X is indeed the culprit for the breakdown. Here is what the email said was the issue:

I don’t know if this error happened because I updated X before I updated Cornerstone?
Update: I tried renaming my /plugins/cornerstone/ folder via my host’s file manager, and that got me access to my dashboard. However, when I tried to install and activate Cornerstone, the same error appeared again, so I renamed /plugins/cornerstone/ back to it’s original name.
Update: Strangely enough, I can still edit in Cornerstone and everything seems functioning normally on my site, but that Wordpress dashboard is still not working…
