 * I am having a problem with plug-in conflicts and WP Bakery.
 * 4.9.8 WordPress
    All Plug-ins updated Template Bookshelf / Themerex
 * The most urgent issue is that I cannot edit the content blocks on the homepage.
 * I can click on the link but only get a blank box.
 * WP Bakery are saying that it is some third party editor plug-in.
 * The original developer has installed tinymce-advanced, but I can see no conflict
   with that, nor does it make any difference whether it is enabled or not.
 * php 7.2.8 is being used.
 * I have gone through the process of disabling all plug-ins and then re-enabling
   one at a time, but it crashes at different points. I have tried several times
   but cannot get the plug-ins to behave.
 * Has anyone had similar problems with woocommerce / wpbakery?
 * Thankyou
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fplug-in-conflicts-2%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello, FDigital01, & welcome. This does seem to be primarily a problem w/your
   page builder &other plugins on your site, so our ability to help is likely limited,
   since the problem basically involves 3rd-party software. Having said thus, I’ll
   make a few suggestions & perhaps something I say here may (or may not) help.
 * The first thing I do in situations like this is to open wp-config.php & change
   WP_DEBUG to ‘true’. Please note that this is a security risk, so please change
   it back to false when you’re done. Then try to edit, etc, & see if any errors
   show.
 * Another thing you might try is to look in your web root & any subfolders for 
   files called either error.log or error_log. These may contain error messages 
   that might prove helpful. Lastly, sometimes your hosting provider has an aplet
   in their control panel called Errors or Error Logs which may also contain helpful
   error messages. If you’d like to post any of these here in your next reply, please
   enclose them in , as:
 *     ```
        line 1
       line 2
       line 3
       ```
   
 * Please let us know what you find out, if anything, ok? I wish I could be of more
   assistance, but when the problem is outside of core, it can be difficult to troubleshoot.

 * thankyou. is there anyway to determine what the correct order to re-activate 
   plug-ins is? with the conflicts i get the error 500 white screen and the only
   way to get back into admin (I believe) is to disable the plug-in folder, then
   once in admin – renable the plug-ins. The problem is that the site keeps crashing
   when I re-enable the plug-ins one by one. It crashes at different points with
   varying plug-ins. All are up to date.
 * Would it be the order in which I am enabling the plug-ins be the issue?

 * FDigital01, the core plugins such as Akismet, Jetpack, etc, should be enabled
   first, as these are basically part of WordPress. From then on, it likely doesn’t
   matter, but if a plugin crashes, there’s obviously some conflict there. You should
   also ask your host if perchance your site is throwing any mod_security errors.
 * 1 thing I can offer you is to set up a staging site on my server. If the site
   works well, then we know this has something to do w/your hosting provider. If
   not, then we know it’s a plugin conflict.
 * Unfortunately, the link you provided just leads me to the short url site where
   you can input a link to be shortened, not your site itself. That’s too bad, as
   often by looking at a site one can get clues as to things that might be going
   on.

 * It turned out to be a memory issue. I had not updated the php.ini on the staging
   site.
