   Another post on this subject, i've looked for white space in the main files but all seems to be ok. I have one error when adding a shortcode in the functions file, but i've never had the error in the header before and we're months into coding the site.

   Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /var/www/vhosts/clienttestdomain.co.uk/httpdocs/wp-content/themes/kino/header.php:16) in /var/www/vhosts/clienttestdomain.co.uk/httpdocs/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 754

   it was when i added a function if(wp_update_user(array('ID' => $currentUser->ID, 'user_pass' => $newpassword)))

   in this function, if i swap this out for a return statement eg $output .= "hello world"; it is fine?

   The second error is in an admin plugin, this didn't happen on my local server

   Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /var/www/vhosts/clienttestdomain.co.uk/httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/film_db/filmdb.php:81) in /var/www/vhosts/clienttestdomain.co.uk/httpdocs/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 934

   I've checked the code and it still all works fine just shows this error, here is the method of the object that contains the code with line 81

   I don't know where to start, what does this error even mean, what headers sent? Any help would be gladely received, i'm a broken man!!!

   Yaayyy, i've got the solution, havent got a clue what it does or its side effects but it has solved both the problems, add the following to functions.php

   add_action('init', 'do_output_buffer');
   
   	function do_output_buffer() {
           ob_start();
   	}

   found over at stack overflow

   Does nobody ever read error messages these days?

   (output started at /var/www/vhosts/clienttestdomain.co.uk/httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/film_db/filmdb.php:81)

   Now guess which plugin needs to be deactiveated/deleted?

   it's a custom plugin that runs half the system, what good is deleting/deactivating going to do? dont comment if your no use

   Your custom plugin is the one generating the errors. You asked for the cause. That's it.
