Site frozen when Widget Bundle Plugin is active

Hello. My website recently stopped loading completely when I updated all my plugins. The site gets stuck on the loading page. I also added an RSVP Plugin at the same time as doing my updates, which I’ve since removed. I’ve tried to deactivate all my plugins and then activating them one by one to find the culprit, which seems to be the Site Origin Widget Bundle. I’m able to get past the loading page when this plugin is not active, although the layout/formatting is very messed up. Can someone please help me figure out how to fix this issue? Thanks!

    Hi Thanh,

    Do you currently have Wordfence installed? If so, This is likely a WordFence issue. The issue is that it’s initially very strict so things like the Learning Mode do definitely help in resolving issues like this one. However, if you want to “skip” the learning process and just use your widgets you can do so pretty easily. Go to the affected widget and open it up, don’t get “blocked” yet. Instead open up another tab on WP AdminWordFenceLive Traffic and filter it by blocked traffic. Then make an adjustment to your button widget and you’ll get blocked. Go back to the Wordfence tab and press the whitelist param from FireWall button. This is 100% safe as the contents of the field are not at all close to what would be required for an XSS attack. (it’s really quite odd it would even suggest such a thing…).
