WordPress has its advantages, sometimes it can give you errors without notifications. And you know what I am talking about right now. Sometimes you get WordPress errors as internal server error, but do not worry, for each error message in WordPress, there is a solution! If you would like to know more, read the following info below.

Internal Server Error
Pretty much website owner faced the WordPress Error "Internal Server Error". It is very annoying and can by a corrupt by .htaccess file or a damaged plug. Anyway, the solution to this WordPress Error can be found directly when you view your site.

Solutions:
Damaged .htaccess file: If the internal error by a corrupt on .htaccess file, then go to the root directory on your hosting and locate the .htaccess file and change the name in .htaccess.old . around. After that, go to permalinks -> setting and re-save the setting and it will create a new htaccess file for you.

Damaged Plugin: Sometimes the internal errors caused by damaged Plugin. Want to find out that, you look at your plugins and disable all. Then, verify that the problem has been resolved.

Failed autoupdate
WordPress comes with the great AutoUpdate feature, but sometimes has its disadvantages. It ends up sometimes with a WordPress error that causes a WordPress crash. This is caused by incorrect file authorization or Internet connectivity issues during the update.

Solution:
If your WordPress AutoUpdate does not work, you can do this manually. You can quickly find the solution using search engines.

Error establishing a database connection
This WordPress Error used to happen when you have wrong information on your config.php file or you have not changed name wp-config.php from wp-config-sample.php file. But do not worry, there is a solution for this!

Solution:
create a database for your WP site and fill right info such as database name, user name and password into your wp-config.php file.
Make sure that all user names and passwords are correct.

HTTP error 404 forbidden
This is the most common WordPress error encountered by the user. There are many causes, such as a defective .php file or a problem with the directory indexes. There are only a few solutions, some of which are mentioned here.

Solution:
Go to the Control Panel and click on "File Manager". Then navigate to the directory and check index.php there.

Connection time-tour error
If your website is running with a lot of servers, you will often encounter this WordPress Error. Causes for this can be heavy plugins or function errors with the theme.

Solution:
Disable plugins: If you have previously installed heavy plugins, disable it to get rid of the WordPress Error.

Exhausted PHP memory limit
This WordPress Error appears, is more likely than others. Just expand the PHP memory.

Hope it helps!

The most irritating error which a lot of users have experienced is a slow wordpress website. I have seen many wordpress lovers complaining about the slow wordpress website issues . The fix to such issues varies case by case and it depends on the hosting platform like if a VPS , dedicated server or a shared hosting account.

Also no issue have a standard procedure to fix .. some time you have to use temp. fixes , however fixing the things in a right way permanently makes you hosted property more secured.

Adding this to your wp-config.php file usually will increase visibility of the error (especially in the aforementioned white page of death) as to what actually went wrong :

define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );


Obviously if you have access to error_logs, the same information should be stored there as well
