    Hi all – Just recently the QSM plugin has started giving us a critical error message on our site. We’ve had to disable it. Can anyone please let us know what we should do to get it working again?

    Thank you in advance!

    2. Have you updated the QSM plugin to its latest version, 9.2.4?

    4. Is the critical error displayed on the backend of your site or within a quiz you have created?

    Hello – I had responded – it looks like you are not getting my emails. It is still an issue for us. See responses below.

    When did you first encounter this error message? Monday, January 6

     – Have you updated the QSM plugin to its latest version, 9.2.4? I don’t know. I couldn’t get into the Plug-ins screen to see any of them. Version 9.2.4 is what currently shows when I look at the Plug-ins list now.

     – Did the issue begin after updating to the latest version? See response above.

     – Is the critical error displayed on the backend of your site or within a quiz you have created? Back end

     – If the error is related to a specific quiz, could you please share the URL of the quiz where the issue occurs? There is a current quiz set-up, but we can no longer see the quiz. It was posted on December 4, 2024; see this link: To Use AI or To Not Use AI…for Manuscript Development? | the Map. All that shows on the URL now is the shortcode, not the quiz text. I was able to see the quiz and responses after it was posted. I don’t have the plug-ins installed/activated to see the quiz and responses now. I’m concerned about losing the already logged-in responses to this quiz.

    Hi @ismpp ,

    I hope this message finds you well. Thank you for your prompt response and for sharing the necessary information.

    It appears there may have been an issue where an email was not delivered to us previously. No worries, we appreciate your efforts in providing clarity on this matter.

    Upon reviewing your details from January 6th, I wanted to check if any themes or plugins were updated either on or before that date. It is possible that the updates may have caused a conflict between the plugins and themes, resulting in the critical error message you are encountering.

    I also want to thank you for pointing me to the location of the quiz. Upon reviewing the URL, I noticed that only shortcode numbers are currently displayed. To replicate and better understand the issue from our end, I kindly request you to share the error log files. You can find the error logs within the “Files” section of your hosting panel.

    Specifically, please review and share the error logs from January 6th, as this will allow us to investigate further. Once we have those logs, we can escalate the matter to our development team for a detailed review and ensure a swift resolution.

    Regarding the responses of users who have already attempted the quiz, rest assured that their results and progress will remain intact once the issue is resolved.

    To proceed effectively, we kindly request you to share the error logs at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. Please feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions.

    Warm regards,
    Dhanush

    Hi – How do I access the “files” or “error logs” on my Word Press site? Sorry, we are a small-staff non-profit and we’ve never had to do that before. Thanks!

    Hi @ismpp ,

    I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Please accept my apologies for the delay in getting back to you.

    Thank you for sharing the error logs from your end; they were invaluable in pinpointing the specific section where the issue occurred.

    Currently, our development team is actively working on resolving the problem. The matter has been escalated, and we are aiming to implement a solution as soon as possible. I will keep you updated with either the fix itself or any necessary changes you may need to apply to resolve the issue.

    Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.

    Warm regards,
    Dhanush

    Hi @ismpp ,

    I hope you’re doing well. Apologies for the delayed response.

    Our development team has reviewed the issue based on the error logs you provided. The error stems from an “Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function add_action()” in /wp-content/plugins/hello.php. This indicates that a plugin file—possibly unrelated to QSM—is attempting to execute outside WordPress’ expected environment.Steps to Resolve the Issue

    1. Ensure WordPress is Up-to-Date
      Navigate to Dashboard > Updates and verify that your WordPress installation is running the latest version, as outdated versions can cause compatibility issues with plugins.
    2. Check for Conflicting Plugins
      The error references /plugins/hello.php, suggesting that another plugin—possibly “Hello Dolly” or a custom one—might be causing conflicts.
      • Temporarily deactivate all plugins except QSM.
      • Reactivate them one by one to identify the conflicting plugin.
      • If a specific plugin triggers the error, consider updating it or replacing it with an alternative.

    Please apply these changes and let us know if the issue persists. We appreciate your time and cooperation.

    Best regards,
    Dhanush

    Every time we reactivate the QSM plug in it gives us a fatal error message (as shown above) and Word Press is up to date.
