My site goes down with PHP 8.0 version

YoungNik · Aug 25, 2021

Hi guys!

I have a WordPress adult site built with WP script. I have the PHP version at 7.2 and I should bring it to at least 7.4 but when I switch to the new ones my site goes down with the classic “ 404 error page not found” .
I don’t know if is a problem with some plugin or the Retrotube theme that I’m using.
I hope anyone can help me

first thing i do before i google everything is rename my plugins folder, as most of the time i have found the issue is a plugin, and if you rename the folder & test again,
you can quickly tick that off your list before you tackle anything else.

It’s likely your theme or plugins are incompatible with PHP 7.4. Start by updating all plugins and your Retrotube theme. If the issue persists, disable plugins one by one to identify the cause, or check error logs for specific details.

Probably one of your plugins hasn't been updated to support the newer PHP versions. Try deactivating them one by one to see if it fixes the issue.

RetroTube theme might be the culprit, as older themes sometimes throw fits with newer PHP versions; have you tried switching to a default WP theme temporarily to see if that fixes it?
