    There could be several reasons why you are experiencing issues updating or installing new plugins on your website, and why your website is intermittently going down and up. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

    1. Check if your website is running the latest version of WordPress. If not, update WordPress to the latest version and see if the issue persists.
    2. Check if you have enough disk space on your server. If you are running out of disk space, this can cause issues with updating or installing new plugins, as well as with the stability of your website.
    3. Check if you have the necessary permissions to update or install plugins. If you are not logged in as an administrator, or if your user role does not have the necessary permissions, you may not be able to update or install plugins.
    4. Check if there are any conflicts between the plugins you have installed. Sometimes, plugins can conflict with each other and cause issues with your website’s stability. Try disabling all plugins and see if the issue persists. If not, enable each plugin one by one to identify which one is causing the issue.
    5. Check if there are any errors in your server logs. Your server logs can provide valuable information about any errors or issues that are occurring on your website. Check your error logs for any relevant errors and troubleshoot accordingly.

    If none of these solutions work, you may need to contact your web host or a WordPress developer for further assistance.
