    Hi everyone,
    I use Elementor Pro and wanted to change some minor things on my website this morning and got a ‘cannot modify header information – headers already sent by’ warning. Elementor didn‘t work and since I wanted to redesign my homepage anyway I decided to reinstall WordPress. Reinstall was done but when I tried to activate a theme or plug-in I got some fatal errors and WordPress stopped working.
    I uninstalled it again and deleted all the files in my public_html folder (with CPanel) and reinstalled, but the problem persists.
    Can anyone help me out with a solution or advice on how to find out what’s causing the problem?

    My browser says http500 error. When I refresh and try to click something in the dashboard I get the standard wordpress ‘critical error, a message is being sent to your email…’ message. I know these emails contain useful logfiles but I never got any.

    i see, try this see if you can find anything in error.log : https://wordpress.org/support/article/debugging-in-wordpress/

    otherwise i would suggest create a same topic in elementor plugin support forum

    When I enable debugging mode i get this: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 41943040 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 20480 bytes) in /home/hypszlhw/public_html/wp-includes/widgets.php on line 644

    Yesterday I ran the debug mode in my wp-content.php and found the error. The memory limit wasn’t high enough for some reason. That’s weird since I never had a problem with the memory size, not on any of my many homepages. I unlimited the memory size by -1 in my php.ini and now everything seems to be working nicely. Thanks again! 🙂

    Edit: totally forgot that I already sent the error message before 😀
