Provide as Many Details as Possible

Before you send a request to the tech support asking out to check/setup/fix something, create a topic on the support forum.

Try your best to provide as many problem-related details as possible. You don’t need to send your license key, though. Just stick to the tips below:

  • Attach the error message (if there’s any). For example:

Notice: Undefined property: stdClass :: $ plugin in /home/inthenews123pr/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-list-util.php on line 150

  • Attach the access.log and error.log files;
  • Specify what PHP and WordPress versions you use on the website with the error;
  • Provide a list of all plugins currently activated on your site;
  • Tell us if your website is a multisite;
  • Describe when and how the error showed up. It can be a brief text, such as “I’ve installed a Webcraftic plugin but the plugin X stopped working”;
  • Confirm if that’s an ongoing problem or a cyclical issue;
  • Send us the name of the Webcraftic plugin and its version that causes the error;
  • Provide us with the date & time of the error;
  • Attach a screenshot with conflicting plugins and the error message. Add another one with the visual consequences of errors. Use the PrtSc button on the keyboard, copy the screenshot to the graphics editor from the clipboard and save in on your computer in JPG or GIF format.
  • If you find an error when accessing the server from a browser send a screenshot of it.
