    specifically line 34 says:
    “require ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/version.php’;”

    but the entire section says:
    global $wp_version, $wp_db_version, $tinymce_version, $required_php_version, $required_php_extensions, $required_mysql_version, $wp_local_package;
    require ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/version.php’;
    require ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/compat-utf8.php’;
    require ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/compat.php’;
    require ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/load.php’;

    @wpmudevsupport13 Ok, it was a plugin called SecureInvites and now I can open it back up, but now, when I try to go back and edit a post I was working on, it blanks out the entire screen. I can go back and select Preview instead and it shows me the text I typed out, but will not let me go back and edit?

    @wpmudevsupport13 I also installed a PHP Compatibility checker and it has already shown me a few that are not supported for 8.0. I think this is the route I will go.

    @mosescursor i have been trying for a few days, but my CPanel backend doesn’t allow me to edit the file or download it for some reason. I kind of get stuck and it never lets me edit the file. Is it because WP is currently running and it locks the file from editing?

    I did the suggestion by navlim, but that wasn’t really the effect I was going for, so I just removed the effect and left it as NONE and it works just like I wanted it. So thanks to all!!
