    hi sunrayshine, make sure your functions.php file in the parent theme has no white space or line breaks after the closing } tag.

    RE: my previous post above
    That solution only seems to work for +- 24hours, found another solution which suggested the removal of white space below the closing ?> tag.

    Worked like a charm, if it gives me the white screen of death again after a few days I will post yet another “found” solution.

    PS: the best test to see if a fix is working is to…

    1. try access the admin
    2. If you are already in the admin, preview a post

    If you can accomplish both of those, you are not a sufferer of the white screen.

    I have had the whitescreen issue for the past few days, it occured during my attempt in getting h2 tags to live through the excerpt stripping procedure.

    In my attempt I found an overall solution that made my previous excerpt length and read more links redundant so I copy and pasted the entire function with all the whistles – to cut a long story short, the issue is in the excerpt length when used as so…

    <?php
function string_limit_words($string, $word_limit)
{
  $words = explode(' ', $string, ($word_limit + 1));
  if(count($words) > $word_limit)
  array_pop($words);
  return implode(' ', $words);
}
?>

    After removing a similar snippet from my functions.php, all is back to normal.

    This solution was found by a member named “clickit” about 2 years ago.
