 * Hi ! when i use the plugin with Oxygen and Divi, it shows me a critical error
   each time I want to edit a page where I activated Oxygen and not Divi. The websites
   works in front, it’s the back that doesn’t. Any idea why, please ? Thanks a lot

 * Hi [@chatamelie56](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chatamelie56/)
 * what does the error say?
 * Maybe you have a third plugin that calls a function defined in Divi, and if you
   disable Dive, but not that plugin, that plugin will call a function that doesn’t
   exist, generating a fatal error. This is just a supposition, but it’s the most
   frequent cause of fatal errors when you have plugins that depend on other plugins
   or by the theme. Very probably together with Divi you have a plugin where it’s
   written the code that can’t be written in the theme.
 * If this supposition is confirmed, you will solve the problem by disabling also
   that plugin, and not only Divi.
 * When a plugin uses a function defined in another plugin or in the theme, it should
   always first check if that function exists, but sometimes plugin and theme developers
   forget to check it.
 * If you need that plugin even if Divi is disabled I will add some code to Freesoul
   Deactivate Plugins to solve this problem with Divi.
 * Posting the error will be very helpful to solve this issue.

 * Well I just updated your plugin and, curiously, now it works. Before I had a 
   message saying “a critical error occured, go back to home page” when trying to
   edit the page where I activated Oxygen. The mysteries of life… Thank you anyway,
   a lot, for your answer ! If I have the problem again, I’ll come here. Have a 
   good day 🙂

 * Hello,
 * I noticed a Critical error on-site when the plugin activated with the new update.
 * Actually, the critical error showed up on the first update a day ago, And this
   morning I saw a new update today and still received an error with the latest 
   update. As soon as we fix this issue, I will be glad to upgrade to the pro version.
 * The bad part, I can’t see an error message in the log file, however, I do know
   the critical error from the Version 1.8.8.9.8 Freesoul plugin when active. Wired.

 * Hi [@ace37](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ace37/)
 * thank you for reporting this issue.
 * According to the forum guidelines, you should open a new thread.
    For me, it’s
   totally ok if we continue here, especially if you have the same issue, but be
   aware that a moderator may delete our comments, if this happens don’t hesitate
   to open a new thread.
 * Do you also have Oxygen and Divi? Is the scenario similar to that one described
   by [@chatamelie56](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chatamelie56/) ?
 * Are you sure you have the debug enabled in wp-config.php?
 * Be sure that in your wp-config.php you have
 * define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true );
    define( ‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true );
 * Have you received the email from your site about the critical error?
 * Did it happen on specific pages of the backend or frontend?
 * For moderators: please write a comment here if you delete our comments maybe 
   explaining why you have delete them. for a few days I have seen my answers disappear
   without any explanation and the users don’t understand what happens.
