 * My multisite installation worked fine earlier, but now I get a WordPress error
   called “Invalid nonce.” when I want to edit a project or make other changes –
   on all of the sites.
 * Can anyone help me out, please?
    Thank you in advance.

 * Did you install a plugin recently? I would disable all plugins to see if that
   fixes the problem.

 * yes, i intalled several plugins.
 * but i cannot even deactivate any plugin – i get “Invalid nonce.” error when i
   try it…
 * should i try to delete the plugins from the server?

 * Do not delete the plugins directory. Simply rename it. For example name it from‘
   plugins’ to ‘plugins.bak’
 * It is possible that the theme could do the same thing. But try renaming the plugins
   directory first.

 * WOW. Apparently that worked. Thank you very much.
 * I didn’t change the name of the directory, but just the name of the last plugin
   I installed – that was enough to make it Work Again.
    Thank you Again.
