Title: Fatal Error? Last modified: September 21, 2019 --- # Fatal Error? * Resolved [avividimage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/avividimage/) * (@avividimage) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-3293/) * Hi, * I got an email from WordPress the other day that said a fatal error was on my site. The page it had issues with is a landing page. Any insight you can give me is great. Thanks for your help! * (I have since disconnected Yoast, but would like to use it again if possible) * This is what the error message said… * “Since WordPress 5.2 there is a built-in feature that detects when a plugin or theme causes a fatal error on your site, and notifies you with this automated email. * In this case, WordPress caught a fatal error with one of your plugins, Yoast SEO. * First, visit your website ([https://bankruptcylouisville.net/](https://bankruptcylouisville.net/)) and check for any visible issues. Next, visit the page where the error was caught [https://bankruptcylouisville.net/get-help/”](https://bankruptcylouisville.net/get-help/”) * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ffatal-error-3293%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) * Plugin Support [amboutwe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amboutwe/) * (@amboutwe) * [6 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-3293/#post-11956154) * Within the email, it usually includes the error that triggered the email to be sent.

Can you confirm you are using the most recent Yoast SEO, v12.1? If you update, does the issue resolve? * 2. Are all your non-Yoast plugins and themes also updated? * If all are updated, we’d ask that you please try to re-install the plugin using File Transfer Protocol as it appears a file may be missing or was not installed correctly.

But, all plugins and Yoast were up to date prior to the error. I can reactivate Yoast, but would rather do it when I know you will be looking at the backend. I don’t want my site to crash when customers need it.
