    I’m finding that I am missing a lot of stuff in wordpress now. For example, I can no longer edit files from the theme. That option in the menu is completely gone. In my theme itself I’m missing options for editing which were there a few weeks ago.

    Could something have happened to my wordpress installation? I’ve now got a bunch of 404 errors as well. Sometimes refreshing makes that page actually come up. Nothing is actually missing its just wordpress having a fit.

    What happened?

    Hey jtoney7852,

    That sounds frustrating, and I’m sorry you’re dealing with these issues. A couple of things to check:

    1. Review .htaccess: Sometimes, incorrect configurations in the .htaccess file can lead to 403 errors and missing options. Take a look there and ensure everything is in order.
    2. Recent Updates: Have you made any recent updates or changes to your theme or plugins? Sometimes, conflicts or glitches can occur after updates.

    Given the complexity of the situation, reaching out to your hosting provider would be a good move. They have access to error logs and backups, and they can help restore your site to a point where things were working smoothly.

    Hope this helps, and let me know if you need more guidance.

    Best,

    Niel

    If you’re facing difficulties on WordPress, there could be several reasons for this issue.

    1-Some plugins require more memory to install. You can try increasing the PHP memory limit by adding the following line to your wp-config.php file:

    define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');

    2-Look for any error messages that might be displayed during the website visit. These can provide valuable information about what went wrong.

    3- Enable WordPress debugging to see if there are any specific error messages. Add the following lines to your wp-config.php file:

    define('WP_DEBUG', true);
    define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
    define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);

    Sometimes conflicts between plugins can cause issues. Deactivate and delete any inactive or unnecessary plugins before attempting to install the new one.

    Memory was already set to that. Log is enabled already as well but shows nothing. htaccess hasnt changed in years.

    A2hosting can’t figure out why the log doesn’t work. They messed with it a while back and I lost the ability to do that. So I CAN NOT get the log right now.

    Still doesn’t explain where the option is for editing the files of the theme in the appearance area of the admin panel.

    I guess I’m alone on this issue. I can’t seem to get help from anywhere so I guess I’ll just delete my website and call it a day. 2 years down the drain.

    • Make sure any security plugin is doing this, some security plugins have specific settings that allow you to disable the theme editor.
    • on wp-config.php check for this line.

    define('DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT', true)

    If it was there, remove or comment it out, and check again. @jtoney7852
