    Hi All, what could be the possible cause of the following ‘WordPress database error Commands out of sync; you can’t run this command now for query SELECT *, CASE’ error in our error log?

    Hi Matt,

    The MySQL documentation say that this error is caused by incorrectly using a couple functions that Wordfence doesn’t use:

    https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/commands-out-of-sync.html

    Therefore it could be being caused by the following:

    1) Your theme or another plugin is using one of those functions.

    2) Also, mysql_use_result() is used internally in PHP (in the C source) and not necessarily as a PHP function. It’s possible certain PHP versions have a bug that may call it when it shouldn’t happen so the version of PHP your site is running under could be the cause.

    I would like to have a look at your Wordfence diagnostics report. Please go to the top of the “Diagnostics” tab on the Wordfence “Tools” page. There will be a “SEND REPORT BY EMAIL” button to send the diagnostics report. Enter wftest [at] wordfence [dot] com as the email and @emkadia as the forum username please.

    Once you have emailed me the diagnostics report can you reply here to let me know that it has been sent. This is important in the unlikely event that your installation of WordPress is having an issue with sending mail.
