I have received the following information from the InfiniteWP wordpress management software support
"When you do Reload Data on your panel, IWP will run site transient hook to fetch the updates from your WordPress sites.
It looks like Cornerstone plugin is also doing the same process when it has some update. As a result, IWP is failing to get home page URL
home_page_url() on null in /home/kramerbev/www/www/wp-content/plugins/cornerstone/includes/classes/admin/class-updates.php on line 135.
Could you please contact the plugin developers regarding this issue and get it fixed.
Note: Updating the Cornerstone plugin on your site from WordPress Dashboard will fix the reload data issues on your admin panel.
Cheers!
Asvin"
Is this something that can be looked into please. currently the ‘only’ solution is for me to update Cornerstone to a non-stable version
