I am having a major fatal error issue of my website. It has been down quite frequently. How can I solve this issue?
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare sdec() (previously declared in /home3/alanc929/public_html/wp-includes/vars.php:110) in /home3/alanc929/public_html/wp-includes/vars.php on line 177

    Hi Alan

    This error comes up when a specific function is created more than once. The function in this case is called sdec. There isn’t a function by this name in the default file /wp-includes/vars.php – so it’s possible that something has modified your files.

    One cause might be another plugin injecting this code into that file. It’s also possible that this is a malicious plugin, so I’d start by deleting plugins that you’ve downloaded from untrusted sources.

    Here is a temporary solution for your particular case.
