Title: Admin Blank Plugin Page Last modified: October 22, 2025 --- # Admin Blank Plugin Page * Resolved [tpphost](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tpphost/) * (@tpphost) * [7 months, 2 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-blank-plugin-page/) * After recently upgrading your plugin to version 5.5.2, I noticed that my admin > plugins page (and the admin > updates page) both were showing blank pages. It took me a few hours to track it down to your plugin (error_log file wasn’t reflecting any actual errors related to this), and found that by deleting your plugin was the only way to get the blank admin pages back again. * I manually uploaded the latest version and reinstalled, only to run into the same issue again. The issue is same in PHP 8.2 and 8.3. * Just an FYI so you can address this.

No issues on their site at all. * So taking a guess that your plugin didn’t properly update the database, I installed the plugin again on my site, did NOT activate it (admin plugin page showed fine) and clicked DELETE (previously already had it set to delete all settings and data if deleted), then reinstalled it onto my website. I completed the setup wizard, and then checked out the admin plugins page again. Same deal – blank. * I am guessing at this point that it is an incompatibility issue with one of the other plugins. Any advice or help you can give is appreciated. * [epasquini](https://wordpress.org/support/users/epasquini/) * (@epasquini) * [7 months, 2 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-blank-plugin-page/#post-18691472) * Applied this update and initially 2 sites affected, but then over 50 I manage that all got this update all had either blank page or errors telling me that something was wrong when I tried to access /wp-admin/plugins.php on the sites. * Thankfully not affecting end user experience, but had to roll all sites back to 5.5.1 to be able to continue my monthly plug in maintenance. * Definitely something in the update needs another patch. * Plugin Support [Lucian Padureanu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucianwpwhite/) * (@lucianwpwhite) * [7 months, 2 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-blank-plugin-page/#post-18691695) * Hello [@tpphost](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tpphost/) [@epasquini](https://wordpress.org/support/users/epasquini/) I am really sorry to hear about this unexpected experience! Thank you for reporting it so quickly and bringing it into our attention. Our team is already aware of this error and we’re actively working on a fix. * In the meantime, could you please try **disabling and then re-enabling the plugin** to see if that resolves the error? Also, can you let me know from which version you have updated the plugin to the latest? * It would also be very helpful if you could let us know **how you performed the update** : was it done normally through the Plugins page in the WordPress dashboard, or in a different way (for example, via FTP or CLI)? * Your feedback will help us narrow down the cause and ensure this is fully addressed shortly. * Many thanks for your patience and cooperation! * [epasquini](https://wordpress.org/support/users/epasquini/) * (@epasquini) * [7 months, 2 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/admin-blank-plugin-page/#post-18691726) * Not able to disable and re-enable to test.
