    Unfortunately, I made the mistake of upgrading to 5.3.2 just a little bit ago… and now I cannot edit any posts on the backend because when the pages try to load, they are all blank white.

    On my dashboard, it says that a PHP update is required because WordPress has detected that my site is running on an insecure version of PHP. However, when I change my PHP from 5.6 to 7.1 it says that I have a critical error on my website (on the backend)

    The front end seems to be working fine without going to PHP 7.1. but I still cannot edit posts or see them because the pages show up all white.

    WordPress now requires PHP 5.6.20 or higher, and we recommend PHP 7.3 or higher: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/about/requirements/

    I recommend switching to either PHP 7.3.x or the 7.1.x branch you mentioned. Once done, if the backend crashes again, try manually resetting your plugins (no Dashboard access required). If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.

    If that does not resolve the issue, access your server via SFTP or FTP, or a file manager in your hosting account’s control panel (consult your hosting provider’s documentation for specifics on these), navigate to /wp-content/themes/ and rename the directory of your currently active theme. This will force the default theme to activate and hopefully rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).
