he White Screen of Death (WSOD) in WordPress usually means there’s a fatal error preventing your site from loading properly. It’s a blank white page with no error messages. Common causes include:

Common Causes:

1. Plugin or Theme Conflicts – A poorly coded or incompatible plugin or theme can cause the WSOD.

2. Exhausted PHP Memory Limit – Your site may have run out of allocated PHP memory.

3. Syntax Errors – Mistakes in custom code or edits to theme/plugin files can break the site.

4. Corrupted Core Files – Incomplete updates or file corruption can cause the issue.

5. Server Issues – Problems with your hosting environment may trigger the white screen.

How to Fix It:

• Deactivate all plugins via FTP or your hosting control panel to check if a plugin is the cause.

• Switch to a default theme like Twenty Twenty-Four to rule out theme conflicts.

• Increase PHP memory limit by adding this line to your wp-config.php:

define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');

• Enable debugging by adding these lines to your wp-config.php to see error messages:

define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);

• Restore corrupted files by re-uploading fresh WordPress core files.

• Contact your hosting provider if the problem persists, as it could be server-related.
