 * Since a day or two we have a big problem in Woocommerce. When we adding a product
   with filling everything we get an error: critical error on your WordPress website.
 * When we go one page back and go to products you will see that the product is 
   saved but without price, sku, pictures etc.
 * So we ar not able to add a product.
 * How can we solve this?

 * Hey, ripasolutions, I’m another WooCommerce user.
 * Do you have the PHP error log message associated with the critical error that
   you’re experiencing?

 * To help you further, I’d like to understand more about your setup.
 * Could you please send me a copy of your site’s System Status? You can find it
   via `WooCommerce > Status`. Select `Get system report` and then `Copy for support`.
 * Once you’ve done that, you can paste the text in [https://gist.github.com/](https://gist.github.com/)
   and feel free to change/remove your site URL in the report for privacy reasons.
 * Once you have that, you can paste the Gist link here in your reply.

 * If so, please select `View` and copy and paste them into your reply here.

 * Hello [@ripasolutions](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ripasolutions/),
   Checking
   the error code seems like the `wc_custom_save_custom_fields` the function is 
   not being called in from the following [WordPress directory](https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/master/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php).
 * This kind of problem is usually caused by a conflict with your theme or with 
   another plugin.
    The best way to determine this is to:
    - Temporarily switch your theme to [Storefront](https://www.woocommerce.com/storefront/)
    - Disable all plugins except for WooCommerce
    - Repeat the action that is causing the problem
 * If you’re not comfortable doing all of this on the live version of your site,
   you can create a staging environment using [WP-STAGING](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-staging/).
   
   If you do not see the same problem after completing the conflict test, then you
   know the problem was with the plugins and/or theme you deactivated. To figure
   out which plugin is causing the problem, reactivate your other plugins one by
   one, testing after each, until you find the one causing conflict. [You can find a more detailed explanation on how to do a conflict test here.](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/)
   As for uploading the system status report on the off chance the test is unavailing,
   then you can just post it directly here. Let us know how it goes!

 * Hi [@ripasolutions](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ripasolutions/)
 * I understand that even after switching to the [default Storefront theme](https://woocommerce.com/storefront/),
   the error still persists.
 * Kindly please try to switch to the [default Storefront theme](https://woocommerce.com/storefront/)
   and only WooCommerce plugin is enabled, add a new product again and see if this
   works?
 * If so, as suggested by Saif above, this kind of problem is usually caused by 
   your theme or a third-party plugin present on your site. We can run a conflict
   test to verify this. I’d recommend cloning your site to a staging environment
   and performing the tests described on this [guide](https://woocommerce.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/)
   without modifying your live site or impacting customers. Many hosts provide staging
   facilities, so it’s worth checking in with them. It’s also possible to do it 
   using the free [WP Staging](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-staging/) plugin.
 * If this was caused by a third-party plugin present on your site, it would be 
   best to reach out to the developers for further assistance here.
 * If this did not resolve the issue, please provide the **fatal error logs** (if
   any) under `WooCommerce > Status > Logs`.
 * Let us know how it goes!

 * Now i know which plugin caused the problem. I have send an e-mail to the developer.
   Thanks for everything guys!
 * Regards.
