A compromised site rarely announces itself cleanly. Visitors get redirected to pharmacy or scam sites. Google raises a warning flag. Your hosting company suspends the account. Or the site looks fine to you but is serving malware to everyone else — a technique called cloaking, designed specifically to evade the person most likely to notice something is wrong. The attack itself usually happened days or weeks before any visible symptom appeared.

Real cleanup means auditing every file, every database table, and every plugin — not running a scanner and calling it done. Automated tools find the surface infection. They routinely miss the hidden access points that let attackers return within 24 hours of a “clean.” We find those too. Every cleanup ends with a full hardening pass and a written summary of what was found, what was removed, and what was changed.

You open your site and get a completely blank white page. No error message. No indication of what broke or where. The WordPress “white screen of death” is one of the most disorienting failures a site owner encounters — because it gives you nothing to go on. It can be caused by a plugin conflict, a theme error, a PHP memory limit, a failed update, or a code change that introduced a fatal error anywhere in the stack.

Diagnosing it correctly matters more than fixing it fast. Disabling every plugin at random until something works is a common approach — and frequently breaks things further, especially on WooCommerce stores with active orders or subscription logic. We isolate the cause systematically: error logs first, then environment checks, then targeted testing. You get a working site and a clear explanation of what caused the failure, so it doesn’t repeat the next time a plugin updates.

A broken WooCommerce checkout is not a website problem — it is a revenue problem. Customers who hit an error at checkout don’t wait around. They leave, and most don’t come back. Checkout failures have a wide range of causes: a payment gateway conflict, a plugin update that broke the cart session, a JavaScript error introduced by a theme change, a shipping calculation failure, or a webhook misconfiguration with your payment processor. The symptom is the same — orders aren’t completing — but the fix depends entirely on the actual cause.

We start with the checkout flow itself — what the customer sees, where it fails, and what the browser console and server logs say about why. From there the diagnosis is targeted, not a process of elimination that takes down your store for half a day. We also check for orders that may have been partially processed during the failure window, so you’re not left with payment captured but no fulfillment triggered.

WordPress core updates, plugin updates, PHP version changes, and hosting platform migrations all carry the same risk: something that worked before no longer works after. The update itself is rarely the problem — the problem is an assumption baked into a plugin, theme, or custom code that the update quietly invalidated. PHP deprecation warnings become fatal errors. A plugin’s database schema no longer matches what WordPress core expects. A function that existed in the previous version was removed. The update didn’t cause the bug — it exposed one that was already there.

Rolling back blindly buys time but doesn’t solve anything — and on sites with active orders, form submissions, or user registrations during the window, a rollback can create data consistency problems worse than the original issue. We identify the specific conflict, fix it at the source, and where a temporary patch is needed we document it clearly so it doesn’t get forgotten and re-broken on the next update cycle.
