Title: Error 500 in Elementor Last modified: February 27, 2020 --- # Error 500 in Elementor * [wsamvanderlinden](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wsamvanderlinden/) * (@wsamvanderlinden) * [6 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-500-in-elementor/) * Hi, * Since I’ve started using OceanWP, I’ve been getting error 500 on all pages on my website when trying to load Elementor. Deactivating the plugins allows me to use Elementor again. Do you know if there is any way to solve this issue? * Best regards, Wouter * FYI: * Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Argument 1 passed to Elementor\Controls_Stack:: sanitize_settings() must be of the type array, null given, called in /home/elixirli/ public_html/wp-content/plugins/elementor/includes/base/controls-stack.php on line 1039 and defined in /home/elixirli/public_html/wp-content/plugins/elementor/ includes/base/controls-stack.php:1995 Stack trace: #0 /home/elixirli/public_html/ wp-content/plugins/elementor/includes/base/controls-stack.php(1039): Elementor\ Controls_Stack->sanitize_settings(NULL) #1 /home/elixirli/public_html/wp-content/ plugins/elementor/includes/base/controls-stack.php(1802): Elementor\Controls_Stack- >get_data(‘settings’) #2 /home/elixirli/public_html/wp-content/plugins/elementor/ core/base/base-object.php(132): Elementor\Controls_Stack->get_init_settings()# 3 /home/elixirli/public_html/wp-content/plugins/elementor/core/base/base-object. php(40): Elementor\Core\Base\Base_Object->ensure_settings() #4 /home/elixirli/ public_html/wp-content/plugins/ocean-elementor-widgets/modules/button-eff in / home/elixirli/public_html/wp-content/plugins/elementor/includes/base/controls- stack.php on line 1995 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ferror-500-in-elementor%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) * Plugin Author [Amit Singh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/apprimit/) * (@apprimit) * [6 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-500-in-elementor/#post-12498174) * Hello, * Can you kindly disable/enable other plugins one by one to check for a possible conflict? * [actronab](https://wordpress.org/support/users/actronab/) * (@actronab) * [6 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-500-in-elementor/#post-12502259) * Elementor expects an `array()`, but `null` is passed to sanitize_settings(). * Also see: * [https://github.com/elementor/elementor/issues/10686](https://github.com/elementor/elementor/issues/10686) * Elementor can fix that problem by better handling of `null` values. * Or OceanWP can fix it by passing an empty array instead of `null`. * Thread Starter [wsamvanderlinden](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wsamvanderlinden/) * (@wsamvanderlinden) * [6 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-500-in-elementor/#post-12502547) * Hi guys, * Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I had to urgently make some adjustments to my website, which is why I’ve switched themes. I’ve enjoyed OceanWP for a year or so, it’s been good 🙂 * Best, Wouter Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) The topic ‘Error 500 in Elementor’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/ocean-extra/assets/icon.svg?rev=2814940) * [Ocean Extra](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ocean-extra/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ocean-extra/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ocean-extra/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ocean-extra/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ocean-extra/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ocean-extra/reviews/) * 3 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [wsamvanderlinden](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wsamvanderlinden/) * Last activity: [6 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-500-in-elementor/#post-12502547) * Status: not resolved
