 * I have gone to analytics for the first time and am just getting an OOPS something
   went wrong message. Any thoughts as this message is not helpful.

 * Hi there!
 * Thanks for reaching out and letting us know about this I understand how confusing
   that **“Oops, something went wrong”** message can be, especially when it doesn’t
   give any details.
 * As a first step, could you please try clearing both your **site cache** and your**
   browser cache**, then attempt to access the Analytics page again? Sometimes cached
   data can cause this type of issue.
 * If the problem persists after clearing the caches, I’d like to understand your
   site properly. Please share with us the necessary information below for us to
   investigate the issue further:
    - **System Status Report** which you can find via WooCommerce > Status
    - **Fatal error logs** (if any) under WooCommerce > Status > Logs.
 * Please use [https://pastebin.com/](https://pastebin.com/) or [https://gist.github.com/](https://gist.github.com/)
   and share a link to that paste in reply here. Once we have more information, 
   we’ll be able to assist you further.

 * Hi there,
 * Thanks for sharing the error details and system status report. I’ve checked the
   System Status Report, and I can see that the WordPress memory limit is currently
   set to **40MB**, which is very low.
 * This error “CRITICAL Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted” indicates
   that the site is running out of memory when trying to load the Analytics page.
   WooCommerce Analytics can be memory-intensive, and with such a low memory limit,
   the request fails and results in the generic “Oops, something went wrong” message.
 * To resolve this, I recommend contacting your hosting provider and asking them
   to increase the WordPress / PHP memory limit to **at least 512MB**. Once that’s
   done, please clear any site cache and try accessing **WooCommerce → Analytics**
   again.
 * If the issue persists after increasing the memory limit, please let us know and
   share any updated error messages so we can take a closer look.

 * Hi there!
 * Thank you for the update. Could you please share the **new System Status Report**
   again?
 * In the meantime, please try to **run a conflict test**. Here is a guide to help
   you with the steps:

 * The conflict test will be a challenge due to issues with our host and the fact
   they screwed up our site last time we did anything like this

 * Hi there!
   Thank you for sharing the System Status Report. I can see that the **
   memory limit is not set to 512MB**.
 * If increasing the memory does not help, it’s possible that a **plugin or custom
   code** on your site is causing this issue. I have seen a similar issue before
   here: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-oops-something-went-wrong-5/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-oops-something-went-wrong-5/),
   where a **plugin conflict** was the cause. That is why we suggest running a **
   conflict test**.
 * However, before running a conflict test, please go to **WooCommerce → Status**
   and do the following:
    - **Clear analytics cache**
    - WooCommerce transients – Clear
    - Expired transients – Clear
    - Clear template cache – Clear
 * Next, please clear your browser cache and then check again.
   If that does not 
   work, please create a **staging site**. You can use the following plugin to create
   a staging site: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-staging/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-staging/).
   Then run the **conflict test** on the staging site so that your live site remains
   unaffected.

 * No change after deleting cache’s
 * WP Staging failed to create a development site so I will have to do it manually

 * Hi [@colinsp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/colinsp/),
 * I can see how cautious you are being here, especially given the past issues with
   your host, and that makes complete sense. We want to make sure this is tested
   safely without putting the live site at risk, and a staging environment is the
   right approach.
 * Once you have the staging site created and the tests completed, please let us
   know the outcome so we can take the next step with you. Many hosting providers
   offer a built in staging feature directly within cPanel or their hosting dashboard,
   so it is worth checking there first before setting it up manually.
 * If you need guidance on running the conflict test once the staging site is ready,
   this guide walks through the process in detail [https://woo.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/](https://woo.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/).
 * Looking forward to your update, and we will take it from there together.

 * Hi there!
 * I’m glad you were able to identify **PublishPress Capabilities** as the plugin
   causing the issue. That definitely helps explain the behavior you were seeing.
 *  If you’re happy with the support you received today, would you consider leaving
   us a quick review? It really helps us out: [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/reviews/#new-post](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/reviews/#new-post)
