@teamexio @vincentdelano If you are experiencing this on a live site, make sure you have access to a backup and you restore to a point before this happened. It is unlikely that an update will get your original data back.

Hopefully we’ll have a fix soon.

SOLVED

Make sure all your widgets/shortcodes that use WP_Query use wp_reset_postdata(); at the end instead of wp_reset_query();

Was pulling my hair out looking for this solution.

Giacomo + ssvandin –

You should first try manually reinstalling the updated version of WordPress:

Secondly, you should try disabling all plugins.

Thirdly, you should try setting your theme to the default theme that came bundled with WordPress (TwentyFifteen or TwentySixteen).

If all the steps above still lead to the same errors then you should contact your host and verify there are no major errors in the log.

Giancomo –

WP-CLI is meant for developers who build and run their own web servers – not the typical practice for WordPress website owners. If you are not using SSH (or are not familiar with SSH) then WP-CLI is not the issue for your website.

What host are you using for your WordPress website that is causing issues?

SOLVED

I was using WP Cli and it needed to be upgraded. Check out this handy post for solutions to common 4.4 issues:

P.S. This post should probably be added to the WP dashboard if wp_debug is turned on – it would have saved me and others time. Just a thought.

I’m having the same issue:

PHP Fatal error:  Class 'WP_Widget' not found in /var/www/stage/mexico-resort.stage.duable.com/html/wp/wp-includes/widgets/class-wp-widget-pages.php on line 17
Fatal error: Class 'WP_Widget' not found in /var/www/stage/mexico-resort.stage.duable.com/html/wp/wp-includes/widgets/class-wp-widget-pages.php on line 17

This is showing as missing within the WP core so its definitely not a plugin issue. I made sure by deleting all plugins including akismet.

I’m running a LEMP server with PHP 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.14 – any help would be appreciated!

Hassing,

I would use RSS. Each WP site comes with RSS feeds by default, so its a case of picking your primary site to serve the posts from and installing a feed on the other three sites.

Let me know if you need help with the feed implementation. There are plenty of RSS feed plugins available.
