I’ve been trying to update the PHP on a site running X theme, but it seems the site encounters a critical error with the X theme and with the convertplug plugin.
I first tried updating the PhP, which crashed the site (these instructions). I was able to go into the GoDaddy Managed WordPress backend and partially update the PHP to 6.0.2, which functioned with the outdated X-theme.
I then tried to use the instructions provided here to deactivate cornerstone and update the theme. When I updated the theme to 9.1.4, it crashed the site.
Convertplug is currently at version 1.2.4;
X theme is currently at 4.4.2
) but am not able to test anything on the dev site–I created a new dev site from the updated theme and cornerstone but when i go to access the dev site, it says there has been a critical error. What must I do to be able to test things in the dev space instead of directly editing my live site?
