First, you should ALWAYS backup your site first before doing any updates. Second, you should try in a dev/test/local environment. Once everything is sorted out then you could go to production. To help with the update issues make sure you read this first: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/read-this-first-wordpress-45-master-list?replies=7

Check your server mail logs for information that could help solve the problem. It could be many different things. Also, make sure your site ip address is not blacklisted that could block deliverability and send emails to spam folders.

Just create the “homepage” page and set that to be your front page. Here’s more info: https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Settings_Reading_Screen

increase the memory setting in your wp-config.php file:

The problem is with jQuery. While your theme developer don’t fix the problem you can try add this code to your functions.php temporally.

function modify_jquery() {
if (!is_admin()) {
	wp_deregister_script('jquery');
	wp_register_script('jquery', 'https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.3.min.js');
	wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
}
}
add_action('init', 'modify_jquery');

It seems something odd in your setup. When accessing the URL without the last / it works fine: http://www.thelifein.com/Laguna-Beach-Ocean-View-Bars/2

Turn wpdebug to true on wp-config.php file and then paste the error message here.

Same here! Is this company legit?
