It looks like a plug-in called WordPress SEO is causing the error. What happens when you deactivate it? Don’t delete it.

In my experience, if you’re already doing all that you can with a plugin, you have to make manual optimizations. This includes compressing new images and such. Plugins only go so far. Do remember that Google’s recommendations are suggestions.

Is there any JavaScript embeds? How is the video being added?

If You’re comfortable with PHP, you can enable wp_debug and search for a file called error_log.

It sounds like you’re in a theme options page.

I’m talking about using the WordPress main settings. It is in wp-admin under Settings->Reading

If you’re on cPanel, it is a button called something like php info or php vars. This should show you the values.

Also, what happens when you copy and paste that post’s content in a new test post?

That error sounds a bit server related. Does the host have a high enough PHP max post size and post timeout?

I’m pretty sure there are a lot of free plugins for this. Last time I checked, most of them let you select a certain page to use as a splash screen. Then you can add the elements/videos you want on that page.

In the settings where you set a static page, there should be another option to set your blog feed page. You can switch this to use the page you have named “blog”. WordPress should automatically add the feed back on that page.

It sounds like they are telling you to add a code in htaccess that will run your site in a different php version. The error looks like wrong htaccess code is used.

I would ask them exactly what to put in the htaccess code or tell them just to add it themselves.

Make sure you have a backup of your database and files.

A full restore shouldn’t be necessary. Just go into cPanel file manager. Then go to /public_html/wp-content/plugins/. Then move the entire ultimate-social-sharing-media-icons folder outside of the plugins folder.

This is a way of disabling the plugin if you can’t get to wp-admin.

Make sure you have a backup of your database and files.

The error looks like it is coming from the wordfence plugin. Take a look at their documentation on solving the issue:

Did you install any new plugins or themes recently?

I think you’re looking for the :active selector:

That’s super odd. Is there cron job happening that you don’t know about on your hosting account?

Did you look in wp-config.php or theme functions for max_upload definitions? It can also be set in the .htaccess file. Be very careful with any edits and make backups first.
