• Hi,

    Can anyone out there please help me. I’ve been building a wordpress site for a before Christmas client but had to leave it for a short period of time in the New Year. When I returned to complete the site a few weeks ago I keep getting the following.

    The localhost page isn’t working.
    localhost is currently unable to handle this request.
    500 (sad face)

    I’ve been on a few forums that say log into the dashboard and update the site, but I’ve launched MAMP (version 7.0.0), got to the PHP page, click my My Websites and the error page keeps appearing. What I don’t understand is that I can access an older site I did last year, but not the new one.

    Can anyone please help?

  • I am having the same issue. Everything was working fine, then my Dashboard showed a plugin needed updating. I clicked update, and then when I tried to go to the site, I got the error- “The localhost page isn’t working
    localhost is currently unable to handle this request.
    500″
    Now I can’t log in to my Admin and I can’t get to any of the pages. One minute it was working, the next it isn’t and I have no idea how to get back to my Dashboard. My other WP sites on the local drive are fine. I hope someone can help too.

    Mark, I hope you get your issue figured out. I fixed my problem by going to my htdocs folder, to the theme that was not loading, to wp-content, to plugins and I trashed the plugin folder that caused me to lose access to my site. Then my site loaded, and I was able to get to the admin page and log in!

    Hi,

    Thanks for the help, but unfortunately it’s not worked. Any other ideas? I have noticed that my local host says 8888, but my MAMP says localhost: 8889.

    Any ideas anyone?

    1) Delete or rename the plug-ins in the ‘wp-content/plugins’.
    2) Gradually reinstall or back titles.
    3) For me to localhost and WordPress 4.5 has caused an error plugin “YITH WooCommerce Wishlist”.

    i added the code below to change the currency settings for woocommerce plugin but after updating the functions.php file with the code below,The https://www.richopexecutivehotel.org page isn’t working

    add_filter( ‘woocommerce_currencies’, ‘add_my_currency’ );

    function add_my_currency( $currencies ) {
    $currencies[‘ABC’] = __( ‘Currency name’, ‘woocommerce’ );
    return $currencies;
    }

    add_filter(‘woocommerce_currency_symbol’, ‘add_my_currency_symbol’, 10, 2);

    function add_my_currency_symbol( $currency_symbol, $currency ) {
    switch( $currency ) {
    case ‘ABC’: $currency_symbol = ‘$’; break;
    }
    return $currency_symbol;
    }

    Please identify exactly which plugin you are using and then post in that plugin’s dedicated forum via its page in the Plugin Repository.

    HI,
    Were you able to connect to your website? I am facing the same issue. I have reverted the changes but the plugin is not updating now.

    Is there anything else I can do to help my site working? I’m not able to access it at all.

    I’m using localhost “vertrigo”, because I’m studying, but I can′t see my posts. Ex: The requested URL /first/batata-doce/ was not found on this server.
    Why? I can see the principal page and it’s ok, I’d see links and it’s ok too.
    Is that because I’m using a localhost to edit it ?
