Greetings,

I was having a persistent problem with long, unintelligible (to me) warnings at the top of my home page. I created a message here on the forum about a year ago, or maybe more, and then gave up and lived with the issue. However, today I made another attempt to fix the issue and tried to rewrite the items under the "Links" menu in the configuration menu item just in case that was the cause of the problem. Here is the original links config text (which worked fine below all the lines of warning text in the home page header):

<?php

$conf['links'] = array(
    'http://www.janbecket.net' => 'Return to janbecket.net',
    'http://www.janbecket.net/wordpress/?page_id=538' => 'Apologia',
    'http://www.abookofstones.com' => 'A Book of Stones',
   );




?>

Here is what I edited and saved - without the "<?php" in the first line and without the ?> at the end.


$conf['links'] = array(
    'http://www.janbecket.net' => 'Return to janbecket.net',
    'http://www.janbecket.net/wordpress/?page_id=538' => 'Apologia',
    'http://www.abookofstones.com' => 'A Book of Stones',
   );

As far as I could see, saving the text also resulted in those items being added automatically. However when I navigated away from that page, the entire site was immediately gone. No code or error message. Just a blank white page on the screen, and no way to access the admin functions to reverse anything.

Since I noticed an issue with compatibility with php versions in this forum, I logged onto my hosting C-Panel and confirmed that my php was the latest version. I even backtracked and made 7.2 and 7.1 the active versions for my site, but that makes no difference.

I am hoping that the fix does not turn out to be deleting the entire site. Thanks for any help!

- Jan
