Core files constantly need updating

  • My podcast feed found at monicagenta.com/feed/podcast goes “missing” almost every other day. The feed pulls up a blank page. When going into my host, Bluehost, I have to run a “fix WordPress core files” in order to repair the core files. Once I run that, my feed appears again.

    For some reason the core files continue to need repaired therefore my podcast episodes won’t upload until I manually go in and repair the core files

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    WordPress core does not automatically remove/delete/corrupt core files.

    Try discussing this with your hosting provider.

    Meanwhile, to rule out any theme/plugin conflict, you can try disabling all plugins, and using one of the default (Twenty*) themes. If the problem goes away, enable them one by one to identify the source of your troubles.

    If you can install plugins, install and activate “Health Check”: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/health-check/
    It will add some additional features under the menu item under Tools > Site Health.
    On its troubleshooting tab, you can Enable Troubleshooting Mode. This will disable all plugins, switch to a standard WordPress theme (if available), allow you to turn your plugins on and off and switch between themes, without affecting normal visitors to your site. This allows you to test for various compatibility issues.
    There’s a more detailed description about how to use the Health Check plugin and its Troubleshooting Mode at https://make.www.ads-software.com/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/
