    Hi @mohamednaveed,

    Your site edplab.org is using the self-hosted version of WordPress.

    These forums are for WordPress.com hosted sites only :) https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    However, I recommend you to check your .htaccess file, delete your current .htaccess if you have any.
    Check your PHP memory limit; memory should be 64MB or above.
    you can try increasing Memory limit by adding define ('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '128M'); in wp-config.php file.
    To troubleshoot WordPress errors, you require to enable WordPress Debug, which can be done using wp-config.php.
    You need to copy and paste the code in wp-config.php file shown below.
    define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );

    Contact your host(Godaddy) regarding server errors.

    Thanks !!!

    Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, I don’t have access to FTP to edit my files. I’ll try contacting my host.
