I’m not being able to load this page, although I can easily load all other posts that load the same custom post type template (please look for “// From now on, WP is throwing a blank page” on that template to pin point where exactly this situation occurs). When turning debugging on, I only get:
Notice: wpdb::escape is deprecated since version 3.6! Use wpdb::prepare() or esc_sql() instead. in /nfs/c01/h04/mnt/38315/domains/joao.pt/html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 2905
What else can I do to understand what’s going on here? It doesn’t even timeout, it just serves a blank pageâtested in all major browsers. Because of the fact that pretty much all other posts with the same template load correctly, I really have no idea how to debug this weird blank page.
WordPress often is not really accurate with giving your information. You can change that: Set
error_reporting( -1 );
anddefine( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
. More info in that Gist. This will avoid the white screen of death.If you got XDebug installed, every error normally comes with a backtrace of what happened. If you even got an IDE like PHPStorm, you’ll be able to remote debug your pages and see your errors very accurate and fast.
If you ain’t got any of that, your best bet is deactivating all plugins, switching back to the default theme and then activate one after the other step by step to see when the error occurs. If you found the plugin or theme responsible, do a cross file search for
escape
. Then change it according to the error message.
