# Plugins problem in multisite installation

 *  Resolved [Quique5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/quique5/)

 * [3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugins-problem-in-multisite-installation/)
 * The latest version where the plugin works correctly is **6.14.2**. Versions released
   after that fail in a multisite installation.
 * When reverting to version **6.14.2**, the plugin works correctly again.
 * The issue occurs after updating to **6.15.15**, as well as some earlier versions.
 * here some logs:

 * Hi [@quique5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/quique5/) ,
 * Thank you for reaching out.
 * Unfortunately, I have not been able to reproduce this issue in my multisite testing
   environment running only The Events Calendar plugins and the twenty-twenty-one
   theme.
 * For us to understand and learn more about your setup, could you provide the version
   of the following?
    1. PHP
    2. WordPress
    3. The Events Calendar
    4. Events Calendar Pro (if using)
    5. Event Tickets (if using)
    6. Event Tickets Plus (if using)
    7. Theme and Version
 * We would also appreciate it if you could share the full stack trace of the error
   that you got in the debug log.

 * The only errors I have are them, because I quickly downgrade to 6.14.2 (it happened

 * Hi [@quique5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/quique5/) ,
 * Thank you for your message and the information.
 * Unfortunately, I have not been able to reproduce this issue in my testing environment(
   see [https://somup.com/cOnojvWZYD](https://somup.com/cOnojvWZYD)). I suspect 
   there’s a conflict that’s causing the issue here. It would be good to test for
   conflicts. Could you follow the steps below?
    1. Deactivate all other plugins except for The Events Calendar plugin.
    2. Switching to the [Default theme](https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Default_Themes).
    3. Update The Events Calendar plugin from 6.14.2 to 6.15.16.
 * Please read the [Testing for Conflicts](https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/testing-for-conflicts/)
   article before doing anything. 
   To be safe, we’d recommend conducting tests and
   updates on a [Staging Server](https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/creating-and-using-a-wordpress-staging-site/).
   Also, please keep a working backup of your website.

 * Hi there,
 * I have tried with PHP 8.3 and the latest version of WordPress, and the error 
   persists. I have also disabled some other plugins, but nothing worked.
 * I’m still investigating.

 * Thanks for your response, [@quique5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/quique5/)
 * To help us rule out any plugin conflicts, please try activating only our plugins
   along with the **Twenty Twenty-One** theme and check if the issue still occurs.
 * If the issue is resolved, please reactivate your plugins and theme one at a time,
   testing after each step, to identify which one is causing the problem. Let me
   know how it goes.

 * Hi [@d0153](https://wordpress.org/support/users/d0153/),
 * First of all, thank you for your time.
 * I have updated WordPress to the latest version, but that is all I have been able
   to reproduce so far. In two days, I will be able to set up a test environment
   to investigate the issue more thoroughly. I will also try deactivating some plugins.
 * I won’t be able to investigate further until then.
