Why are WooCommerce orders paid successfully but not showing in the admin after enabling Redis cache?
This happens because Redis is serving stale query results, not because the orders are missing. WooCommerce writes order data correctly to the database, but when Redis or Memcached is misconfigured, WordPress reads cached query results instead of fetching fresh rows. That makes it look like orders neRead more
This happens because Redis is serving stale query results, not because the orders are missing.
WooCommerce writes order data correctly to the database, but when Redis or Memcached is misconfigured, WordPress reads cached query results instead of fetching fresh rows. That makes it look like orders never existed even though they are safely stored.
You can confirm this by disabling the object-cache plugin and refreshing the Orders page. If the missing orders suddenly appear, the database is fine and the cache is the problem.

You can debug live sites safely by logging errors instead of displaying them.
Enable
WP_DEBUG_LOGwhile keepingWP_DEBUG_DISPLAYdisabled.Server logs provide additional visibility without affecting visitors. Temporary IP-based access restrictions help during deeper debugging.
Always revert debug settings after troubleshooting.
The common mistake is enabling error display publicly.
See lessThe takeaway is to separate diagnostics from user-facing output at all times.
How do I safely restore a WordPress backup without breaking the site?
Safe restores require matching the backup environment as closely as possible.Restoring files without the database, or vice versa, often causes mismatches. Always restore the database first, then files, then update wp-config.php. Afterward, regenerate permalinks and clear caches. Check for version miRead more
Safe restores require matching the backup environment as closely as possible.
Restoring files without the database, or vice versa, often causes mismatches.
Always restore the database first, then files, then update
wp-config.php. Afterward, regenerate permalinks and clear caches.Check for version mismatches, especially PHP and MySQL versions, which can cause silent failures.
The most common mistake is restoring backups directly onto live sites without testing.
See lessThe takeaway is to treat restores like migrations, not simple file uploads.
How do I debug JavaScript conflicts in WordPress admin pages?
Admin-side JavaScript conflicts usually occur when plugins load scripts globally instead of conditionally.This leads to overwritten variables or multiple versions of jQuery being loaded.

Admin-side JavaScript conflicts usually occur when plugins load scripts globally instead of conditionally.
This leads to overwritten variables or multiple versions of jQuery being loaded.
Open the browser console on the admin page and look for errors. Disable plugins one by one to identify the culprit. Once identified, inspect how the plugin enqueues scripts.
Proper fixes involve using
wp_enqueue_scriptwith correct dependencies and loading scripts only on relevant admin screens. Quick fixes like deregistering scripts should be used cautiously.A common mistake is ignoring console warnings until functionality breaks completely.
See lessThe takeaway is that clean script loading is just as important in admin as on the frontend.
Why does WooCommerce admin analytics load indefinitely?
Infinite loading in analytics usually points to REST API or background processing issues.WooCommerce Admin relies heavily on scheduled tasks and API endpoints.

Infinite loading in analytics usually points to REST API or background processing issues.
WooCommerce Admin relies heavily on scheduled tasks and API endpoints.
Check cron functionality and ensure required database tables exist. JavaScript console errors often reveal blocked API calls. Large datasets can also cause timeouts on underpowered servers.
The mistake is assuming it’s only a frontend issue.
See lessThe takeaway is that WooCommerce analytics depend on backend jobs completing successfully.

When you can’t access admin, the issue is almost always a fatal error from a plugin or theme.
You can recover by deactivating plugins or switching themes via FTP.
Rename the
pluginsfolder to disable all plugins at once. If the site loads, restore the folder and reactivate plugins individually. For theme issues, rename the active theme folder to force WordPress to fall back to a default theme.Checking server error logs provides faster answers than trial and error.
See lessThe takeaway is that FTP access is your emergency brake for WordPress failures.
Why does WooCommerce show incorrect prices after cache clearing?
Incorrect prices after cache clears usually stem from aggressive caching of dynamic content.WooCommerce pricing depends on sessions, user roles, and location.

Incorrect prices after cache clears usually stem from aggressive caching of dynamic content.
WooCommerce pricing depends on sessions, user roles, and location.
Ensure your cache excludes cart, checkout, and account pages. Server-level caches and CDN rules often override plugin settings, so verify those too.
JavaScript-based price updates can also fail if cached incorrectly, especially with minification enabled. Testing with cache disabled confirms this quickly.
A common mistake is caching everything for performance without understanding WooCommerce dynamics.
See lessThe takeaway is that eCommerce performance tuning must respect dynamic data boundaries.
What causes WordPress to redirect to the login page repeatedly?
Repeated login redirects usually indicate cookie or session issues.This often happens when site URLs don’t match exactly, especially after migrations.

Repeated login redirects usually indicate cookie or session issues.
This often happens when site URLs don’t match exactly, especially after migrations.
Check
siteurlandhomevalues in the database or Settings → General. Even an HTTP vs HTTPS mismatch can break authentication cookies.Security plugins and server-side caching can also interfere by blocking cookies or caching login pages. Temporarily disabling those helps isolate the issue.
A frequent mistake is updating URLs in
See lesswp-config.phpbut forgetting database values.The practical takeaway is to always verify URL consistency across config, database, and server.
Why do PHP errors appear only on specific WordPress pages?

Page-specific PHP errors usually mean conditional code paths are failing.
Shortcodes, page templates, or custom queries often execute only on certain pages.
Enable debugging and reproduce the error on the affected page. Look for undefined variables or assumptions about global state. WooCommerce and custom post types commonly trigger this when expected data isn’t present. A common oversight is testing only the homepage after changes.
The takeaway is to test all page types when modifying PHP logic.

Directly editing parent themes causes changes to be lost during updates.
WordPress updates replace theme files entirely.
The correct approach is using a child theme for all customizations. This preserves changes while allowing safe updates.
Version control also helps track and restore custom code.A frequent mistake is making “quick fixes” in parent theme files.
