    There was an auto-update for wp-darkmode on my site and now I can’t log in anymore “Critical error” The culprit is dark mode:

    PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Failed opening required ‘/var/www/agbr/wp-content/plugins/wp-dark-mode-ultimate/wp-dark-mode-pro/plugin.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/share/php’) in /var/www/agbr/wp-content/plugins/wp-dark-mode-ultimate/plugin.php:46

    This is a catastrophe. I can’t even disable the plugin because wp-cli crashes and I can’t execute the command to disable wp-darkmode.

    Please help! Kind regards, Michael

    The error is in this line in plugin.php:

    require_once WP_DARK_MODE_ULTIMATE_PATH . ‘/wp-dark-mode-pro/plugin.php’;

    (quite at the end of the plugin, about eof then up 4 lines)

    This needs to read:

    require_once WP_DARK_MODE_ULTIMATE_PATH . ‘/plugin.php’;

    Then the crashing stops. This is a grave error you need to address it fast.

    Kind regards, Michael

    To clarify: there is no directory wp-dark-mode-pro and the required file lies in the current directory, not in that (non-existing) sub-directory.

    That error is in version 3.0.1. By applying the above correction I could again log into my site. Then wp-darkmode wanted another update to 3.0.2, I applied the update, site is working again. But for people not technically versed or without access to their installation files this approach is not possible. Does auto-update correct the destroyed site? idk because one can’t even log in no admin-stuff is working why should auto update work? Kind regards

    Will the wordpress auto-update for plugins work for an already crashed site, i.e. with version 3.0.1? Kind regards

    Install the latest version(V3.0.2) of the plugin will resolve the issue.

    Yes, updating the plugin will resolve the issue. But as long as 3.0.1 is active no login is possible and therefore no update of the plugin. If automatic updates are enabled, that will fix the problem, yes, but will automatic updates still work for plugins if no login is possible? Does the problem also destroy the ability of wordpress to update the plugins, or does it only block login?
