UpdraftPlus PHP 7 compatibility

    If I activate in my website the plugin UpdraftPlus Backup and set PHP version to 7, I cannot edit my pages or posts: if I open the WordPress default editor, it works, but instead of seeing the text to be edited, I see only a blank page, as if no content was in that page or post.

    If I set PHP version to 5.6 or if, while maintaining PHP 7, I disable the plugin UpdraftPlus Backup, I can normally edit my pages and posts.

    Hi,

    UpdraftPlus has been PHP 7 compatible since late 2015, and has no hooks onto the editing pages. As such, it’s overwhelmingly likely that site is running very close to your configured PHP memory limit, and that you just need to increase that memory limit, and that de-activating UD helps because it just saves you a bit of memory.

    Hi,

    UD has no hooks into the edit posts/pages pages, and has been PHP 7 compatible since late 2015. As such, it’s very likely that your site is running very close to the memory limit in your PHP 7 setup, and you just need to raise that memory limit, and that de-activating a plugin is just helping you save a bit of memory and get in under the memory limit.
