  • Hey @mountain-dude! I had the same issue. Rather than replace the plugin, I replaced this code on line 614
    /home4/inventw6/public_html/wp-content/plugins/simple-twitter-tweets/simple-twitter-tweets.php:614
    add_action( 'widgets_init', function() { register_widget( 'PI_SimpleTwitterTweets' ); } );

    Seems to be working, my WSOD disappeared, and I am back online. Keeping an eye out for other irregularities and testing on browsers now.

    Depending on your case, I also had to amend lines 503 – 510 & 554:

    lines 503 -510 >>

    $tweets[] = array('text' => $text, 'name' => $name, 'permalink' => $permalink, 'image' => $image, 'time' => $uTime, 'tweet_id' => $tweet_id);

    line 554 >>

    <?php if (isset($tweet) && is_array($tweet)) { ?><a href="<?php echo esc_url( $tweet['permalink'] ); ?>" target="_blank"><?php echo esc_html( $tweet['text'] ); ?></a><?php } ?>

    Hoping to get a bit more mileage out of the plugin for now.

    OK, I was able to get back in recovery mode to admin status. I disabled this plugin but the error doen’t go away so disabling it doesn’t seem to make a difference. Before changing some code as you suggest, could this still be a problem even if the plugin is disabled?

    One additional point: My host site techs saw this error in the error log. The?error?log:
    ?thrown in /home4/inventw6/public_html/wp-content/themes/truemag/page.php on line 9

    @mountain-dude

    To your first question, if I have a debugging party to start and I disable a plugin, it clears my errors relating to the plugin so I can test other bugs.
    Have you cleared your cache? I have been having caching issues with chrome lately so I have been checking other browsers as well to test changes as I go, one at a time.

    Your second question is related to your theme, possibly your recent update. I am not familiar with it.
    Have you chased to “line 9”? And also did you check the documentation regarding the update to the theme? There may be some good clues there.

    I personally love bug hunting. It just takes time and patience. Wishing you the best of luck.
