 * Issue seems to be with revslider plugin
 * try to disable Revslider plugin by accessing the files through FTP. Here’s the
   path:
    `/home/deadkaej/public_html/wp-content/plugins/` rename **revslider** 
   to **revslider.old**

 * I had the same issue, when I updated the Slider Revolution plugin to version 
   5.4.5.
 * A quick and dirty fix:
 * Edit the “colorpicker.class.php” file. At line 72, remove the “[0]” part. The
   line should be:
 * return TPColorpicker::process($color, true);
 * I’m not sure if I’m now missing any functionality, but at least my website is
   working again …

 * The issue is with the php version you are running (probably php 5.3 or earlier).
 * Example:
    // 5.4+ only: $this->Auth->user()[‘id’] // 5.3 (and earlier) and 5.4
   +: $result = $this->Auth->user() $result[id]
 * Next update will bring the site down again if they don’t revert that piece of
   code.
 * Instead of removing the [0] add the following which will fix it for now:
 * $tp = TPColorpicker::process($color, true);
    return $tp[0];

 * Good tips, I got it working again simply by updating PHP version on my web host
   to 5.6
 * Also worked with PHP 7.0.
