 * I am trying to build a website using Aspire (electronics shop) theme, on localhost.
   But after loading the .XML file using wordpress import and choosing Home in the
   Setting-Reading page, I received the warning below on the site. I am using wordpress
   5.3
 * Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable
   in C:\xampp\htdocs\electroshop\wp-includes\post-template.php on line 316.

 * This may be a theme conflict.
 * Try switching to the unedited default Theme (Twenty Nineteen, etc.) for a moment
   using the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue.
 * If you don’t have access to your Dashboard’s Appearance page, access your server
   via [SFTP or FTP](https://wordpress.org/support/article/ftp-clients/), or a file
   manager in your hosting account’s control panel (consult your hosting provider’s
   documentation for specifics on these), navigate to /wp-content/themes/ and rename
   the directory of your currently active theme. Alternately, you can remove other
   themes except the default theme (Twenty Nineteen, etc.). That will force your
   site to use it.
 * If that does not resolve the issue, try deactivating ALL (yes all) plugins temporarily
   to see if this resolves the problem (plugin functions can interfere). If this
   works, re-activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(
   s).
 * If you don’t have access to your Dashboard’s Plugins page, try [manually resetting your plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/article/faq-troubleshooting/#how-to-deactivate-all-plugins-when-not-able-to-access-the-administrative-menus)(
   no Dashboard access required). Here is another tutorial: [http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-deactivate-all-plugins-when-not-able-to-access-wp-admin/](http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-deactivate-all-plugins-when-not-able-to-access-wp-admin/).
   If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the
   cause.
