 * Hi mntabg
 * A _critical error_ is a generic message. We need the actual error to identify
   the cause. Please enable WordPress debug mode first:
    1. Connect to your site using FTP or your hosting File Manager.
    2. Open the `wp-config.php` file in the WordPress root directory.
    3. Find this line:
       `define( 'WP_DEBUG', false );`
    4. Replace it with:
 *     ```wp-block-code
        define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );  define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );  define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true );
       ```
   
    5. Save the file and reload the page that shows the error.
 * Please share the complete error message that appears. If a `wp-content/debug.
   log` file is created, you can also share the relevant lines from that file.
 * Once we have the specific error, we can determine whether it is caused by a plugin,
   your theme, or something else.

 * Posting logs here generally does not work and just makes a mess. Please use [https://pastebin.com/](https://pastebin.com/)
   or [https://gist.github.com/](https://gist.github.com/) or the similiar instead
   and share a link to that paste in reply here.

 * Hi [@mntabg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mntabg/) ,
 * The “There has been a critical error on this website” message is a general WordPress
   error and doesn’t tell us what caused the problem.
 * If you received an email from WordPress about the error, please copy and paste
   the error details here (remove any personal or sensitive information).
 * we’ll be able to help you identify the cause and suggest the appropriate solution.
