Hi @helpmelearnwp, we’re here to help!
That error indicates that there’s an issue opening the required file which is why the update was unsuccessful.
I’d recommend manually updating your Solid Security Basic plugin by replacing the old plugin folder with the latest version using these steps:
- Using FTP/SFTP/Hosting File Manager, access your site’s files and go to
/wp-content/plugins/.
- Rename the Solid Security Basic folder to something like “_better-wp-security“.
- Download the renamed plugin folder as a backup and delete the folder from your site’s files after downloading.
- Download the latest version of Solid Security Basic here and unzip it.
- Upload the latest Solid Security Basic plugin in the
/wp-content/plugins/ directory.
- Once done, go back to your site’s WordPress Plugins page and activate Solid Security Basic.
- Lastly, check if the issue persists.
Hope this helps, and let us know how it goes.
Thank you for getting back to me. I’ve heeded your advice. I’ve yet to see any error since. Will update if anything.
