I then deleted the .maintenance file, but now I get the http 500 error each time I got o the website. To resolve this I tried via my FTP to: – change the plugin file name : doesn’t change anything– change the theme file name : doesn’t change anything – increase the memory in wp-config : no changes * I checked my error_log and this it what appears: [22-Feb-2019 16:57:03 UTC] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ”arg’ (T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE), expecting ‘)’ in /home/hh32j454/dbuilding.fr/wp-includes/rest-api/endpoints/class- wp-rest-users-controller.php on line 135 * I looked at the class-wp-rest-users-controller.php file have not clue what to change on line 135.
