L’écran blanc de WordPress est l’une des erreurs les plus courantes de WordPress. C’est aussi une erreur frustrante car il n’y a aucun message et vous êtes bloqué hors de WordPress.
Un autre problème avec l’erreur de l’écran blanc de la mort est que parfois, elle affecte uniquement une certaine partie de votre site. Par exemple, vous pouvez voir l’écran blanc de la mort uniquement dans la zone d’administration de WordPress, alors que tout le reste fonctionne correctement. Dans d’autres cas, vous pouvez le voir uniquement sur une publication spécifique.
Dans cet article, nous allons vous afficher comment corriger l’écran blanc de WordPress en examinant différentes solutions.
Note : Avant d’apporter des modifications à votre site, assurez-vous d’avoir une sauvegarde de votre site WordPress. Si vous n’avez pas accès à la zone d’administration, consultez notre guide sur la création manuelle d’une sauvegarde de la base de données de WordPress.
Pourquoi l’écran blanc de la mort apparaît-il sur WordPress ?
La plupart du temps, lorsque vous voyez un écran blanc de la mort en essayant de visiter votre site WordPress, cela signifie qu’un script sur votre site a épuisé la limite de mémoire.
Le script qui ne répond pas est soit tué par le serveur de votre hébergeur WordPress, soit simplement interrompu. Aucun message d’erreur n’est donc généré et vous voyez simplement un écran blanc.
Cependant, il peut arriver qu’un message d’erreur s’affiche.
Par exemple, vous pouvez voir un message d’erreur critique au lieu d’une page blanche.
Que vous voyiez un écran vide ou le message « Une erreur critique s’est produite sur votre site », il s’agit de la même erreur.
Cette erreur peut également se produire en raison d’un thème ou d’une extension mal codé(e) installé(e) sur votre site. Parfois, elle peut se produire en cas de problème avec votre serveur hébergeur.
Comme l’erreur de l’écran blanc peut être causée par un certain nombre de choses, il est nécessaire de procéder à un dépannage méthodique pour la corriger. Voici les étapes par lesquelles vous devriez essayer de résoudre le problème :
- Check Whether the Problem Happens on Your Other Sites
- Fix the White Screen Error With WordPress Recovery Mode
- Increase the Memory Limit
- Fix the White Screen Error by Disabling All Plugins
- Activate the Default Theme
- Enable Debug Mode to Catch Errors in WordPress
- Clear the WordPress Cache
- Fix the White Screen Error for Longer Articles

Si vous préférez des instructions écrites, continuez à lire.
1. Vérifiez si le problème se pose sur vos autres sites
Si d’autres sites WordPress sont installés sur le même compte d’hébergeur, commencez par vérifier si le problème se pose également sur d’autres sites.
Si c’est le cas, cela indique clairement que quelque chose ne va pas avec votre hébergeur WordPress. Il pourrait s’agir d’un problème temporaire affectant leur service, et vous devez contacter leur support pour plus d’aide.
En revanche, si le problème se produit uniquement sur un site ou une partie spécifique de ce site, vous savez que le problème se situe au niveau de ce site en particulier.
2. Corrigé l’erreur de l’écran blanc avec le mode de récupération de WordPress
Si l’erreur de l’écran blanc de la mort est causée par une extension ou un thème WordPress, alors WordPress peut être en mesure de la détecter.
La nouvelle fonctionnalité de protection contre les erreurs fatales introduite dans WordPress 5.2 peut parfois détecter l’erreur, de sorte que vous ne verrez peut-être même pas d’écran blanc. Au lieu de cela, vous verrez un message indiquant que le site rencontre des difficultés techniques.
WordPress enverra également un e-mail concernant le problème à votre adresse e-mail d’administrateur.
L’e-mail aura pour objet « Votre site connaît un problème technique ».
Ce message e-mail indiquera l’extension ou le thème à l’origine de l’erreur et contiendra également un lien spécial.
Ce lien vous permettra de vous connecter au mode de récupération de WordPress et de désactiver l’extension défectueuse.
Cependant, si vous voyez l’écran blanc de la mort sans option d’e-mail ou de mode de récupération, vous devez corriger l’erreur manuellement.
3. Augmenter la limite de mémoire
En général, cette erreur se produit parce qu’un script a épuisé la mémoire de votre serveur web et s’est arrêté en cours de route.
Pour corriger ce problème, vous devez augmenter la mémoire PHP disponible pour WordPress. Cela permettra au script d’utiliser plus de mémoire pour terminer le travail qu’il était censé faire.
Vous devrez modifier le fichier wp-config.php sur votre site WordPress ou utiliser une extension d’extraits de code comme WPCode.
Vous pouvez suivre les instructions de notre tutoriel sur la façon d’augmenter la mémoire de PHP dans WordPress.
4. Corrigé l’erreur de l’écran blanc en désactivant toutes les extensions
Si l’augmentation de la limite de mémoire de PHP n’a pas aidé, ou si vous avez une limite de mémoire élevée, comme 256M ou 512M, alors vous devez commencer le dépannage.
Dans notre expérience de dépannage de ce problème, nous avons toujours trouvé que le problème provenait soit d’une extension spécifique, soit d’un thème. Désactivons donc toutes les extensions.
Si vous pouvez toujours accéder au Tableau de bord WordPress, vous pouvez simplement vous rendre sur la page » Plugins » Installed Plugins. Sélectionnez toutes les extensions installées, puis sélectionnez » Désactiver » dans le menu déroulant » Actions groupées « .
Cependant, si vous n’avez pas accès à la zone d’administration de WordPress, vous devrez désactiver toutes les extensions via FTP.
Tout d’abord, connectez-vous à votre site WordPress à l’aide d’un client FTP ou du gestionnaire de fichiers de votre fournisseur d’hébergement. Une fois connecté, rendez-vous dans le dossier wp-content, où vous verrez le dossier des extensions.
Vous devez maintenant cliquer avec le bouton droit de la souris sur le dossier des extensions et sélectionner « Renommer ». Vous pouvez renommer le dossier des extensions en « plugins-désactivés ».
WordPress recherche un dossier nommé plugins pour charger toutes les extensions. Lorsqu’il ne trouve pas ce dossier, il désactive simplement toutes les extensions.
Si cela corrige le problème, activez une extension à la fois pour trouver la cause du problème. Une fois que vous avez trouvé l’extension à l’origine du problème, vous pouvez la remplacer par une autre ou signaler le problème aux auteurs/autrices de l’extension.
5. Activer le thème par défaut
Si le dépannage de l’extension ne corrige pas le problème, essayez de remplacer votre thème actif par un thème par défaut.
Tout d’abord, connectez-vous à votre site à l’aide d’un client FTP et accédez au dossier /wp-content/themes/. Il contient tous les thèmes installés sur votre site.
Cliquez avec le bouton droit de la souris pour sélectionner votre thème WordPress actuel et le télécharger sur votre ordinateur en tant que sauvegarde.
Ensuite, vous devez supprimer votre thème actuel de votre site.
Il vous suffit de cliquer avec le bouton droit de la souris sur le dossier de votre thème et de sélectionner « Supprimer ». Votre client FTP va maintenant supprimer le thème de votre site.
Maintenant, si vous avez un thème par défaut WordPress comme (Twenty Twenty-Two ou Twenty Twenty-Three) installé sur votre site, alors WordPress commencera automatiquement à l’utiliser comme thème par défaut.
Cependant, si vous n’avez pas de thème par défaut installé, vous devez l’installer manuellement à l’aide du FTP.
Si cela corrige le problème, vous devriez alors regarder le fichier functions.php de votre thème. S’il y a des espaces supplémentaires au bas du fichier, vous devez les retirer, ce qui corrige parfois le problème.
Si vous utilisez une fonction mal codée dans le fichier functions.php de votre thème, cela peut également provoquer l’erreur de l’écran blanc de la mort.
Envisagez de télécharger une nouvelle copie de votre thème à partir de sa source, puis de l’installer manuellement à l’aide d’un FTP.
6. Activer le mode débogage pour détecter les erreurs dans WordPress
Si rien ne vous a aidé jusqu’à présent, l’étape suivante consiste à activer le débogage dans WordPress. Cela permettra de conserver des journaux des erreurs qui vous permettront de voir quel type d’erreurs est connecté.
Il suffit d’ajouter le code suivant à votre fichierwp-config.php:
define( 'WP_DEBUG', true);
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
Une fois que vous l’aurez fait, l’écran vierge comportera des erreurs, des avertissements et des notifications. Ceux-ci peuvent vous aider à déterminer la cause première.
Si vous ne voyez aucune erreur, vous pouvez toujours consulter le journal de débogage.
Il vous suffit de vous rendre dans le dossier wp-content de votre site à l’aide d’un client FTP. Vous y trouverez un nouveau fichier debogage.log contenant un journal de toutes les erreurs, notifications et avertissements.
7. Vider le cache de WordPress
Il peut arriver que vous ayez accès à l’interface d’administration, mais que le public ait l’écran blanc de la mort.
Cela peut se produire à cause d’une extension de mise en cache. Dans ce cas, il vous suffit de vider le cache de WordPress.
Vous pouvez consulter notre guide sur la façon de vider le cache dans WordPress pour obtenir des instructions détaillées.
8. Corrigé l’erreur de l’écran blanc pour les articles plus longs
Si vous avez un écran blanc de la mort uniquement sur une très longue publication ou page, alors cette méthode peut fonctionner.
Cette astuce permet d’augmenter les permissions de traitement de texte de PHP en augmentant la limite de récursivité et de retour en arrière. Vous pouvez coller le code suivant dans votre fichier wp-config.php:
/** Trick for long posts */
ini_set('pcre.recursion_limit',20000000);
ini_set('pcre.backtrack_limit',10000000);
Nous comprenons qu’il s’agit d’une erreur très frustrante, et nous espérons que l’une des astuces ci-dessus a corrigé le problème pour vous.
Vous pouvez également consulter notre guide de dépannage WordPress, qui explique les étapes à suivre pour détecter et corriger les problèmes WordPress par vous-même, ou notre sélection des meilleurs fournisseurs d’hébergement infogéré WordPress.

Jiří Vaněk says
Very often, the issue with a white screen is a compromised website. Many people have their WordPress sites infected, leading to precisely this error. That’s why it’s crucial to have a backup. Additionally, many people suffer from downloading plugins from unverified sources to save money. In the end, it costs more than a paid plugin. Unfortunately, it’s true. Sad, but true.
WPBeginner Support says
While it could be a compromised site, there are many possible reasons so only having a white screen of death does not automatically mean that a site was hacked.

Ralph says
Does this method helps with my situation?
Sometimes I update few plugins one by one on 1 side of the screen and do something else on second half. It happens i refresh wordpress admin panel during updating plugin and it gives me this white page where I can’t do anything. My hosting makes backups every 6 hours so i just email them to use the freshest one but I want to move to the cheaper one and will not have this option.
WPBeginner Support says
It should be helpful when you run into the white screen, from the sound of it you would want to reach out to your hosting provider to see if you are hitting a resource or memory limit in their system.
Administrateur
Ralph says
I did not think about memory limit, thank you for letting me know. I will contact them to confirm this.
CJB says
The memory limit increase fixed it for me. (This issue rarely happens in WordPress, but the client’s hosting company is a smaller brand that may have contributed to the error.)

I got the white screen. I had just made changes to my child theme functions php, so I knew what the problem was. I followed your steps to my wp-content /themes, Then I did this…and it was easy. Right click on child theme, topen, then functions php file, deleted what I did. Saved changes. Checked if I could enter wp-admin, and all was good.

We are two administrators, and the white screen of death is only affecting one of us — and not all the time. Any suggestions for this? Thanks.
LIAM says
I am having a similar problem where I have had this problem reported by other users, but I do not experience it myself. I am an Administrator, but the people reporting the problem are not. I made a new account set up as Admin for someone who had this issue, and the WSOD did not affect them when using their new account. Because the problem is not universal and seems to be resolvable by changing the profile admin level, it makes me think that it is not the plugins or theme that is causing the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
WPBeginner Support says
Hi Liam,
Many themes and plugins and trigger different functions based on user roles. Here is how you can test.
1. Create a new user account with a user account that usually sees the WOD.
2. Disable all your plugins.
3. Visit your website with that user account in a different browser
4. Reactivate your WordPress plugins one by one until the user account is able to see the WOD again.
This way you will be able to figure out exactly which pluhgin is causing the issue. For checking your theme switch to a default theme and see if this solves the issue.
Administrateur
LIAM says
Hi there,
Thanks for the response and the suggestions. It sounds like a good way to start.
Just to clarify, with Step 1. are you saying that I should duplicate an account that currently experiences this problem OR that I should use an account that sees the WSOD to make a new account for testing?
Can’t see why it would be the second option, but I just thought I’d check as the wording was a bit confusing.
WPBeginner Support says
Hi Liam,
You should create a new user account with the same user role as the one seeing WOD on your site. For example, if a user account with author user role is seeing the error, then create a new dummy user account with author user role for testing.

Hello there!
I have a wordpress blog and have had my first experience of the famous White Screen of Death or at least I think so since the screen is white with only the WP logo. This started when I tried to approve a comment and the button didn´t respond after which I realized that I couldn´t access my admin controls, my stats or any personal controls.
Since I have no experience what so ever of programming or coding and can´t even access the ordinary support pages without seeing this wsod, I am helpless and would soo appreciate if anyone of you computing wizards could help in any way?

I have had the ‘white screen of death’ for for weeks. I’ve had to store all of my what-would-be blog posts as notes in my device until I could find the solution. Nothing worked. I was about to create new blogs elsewhere when something struck me. I always browse in private mode. This never bothered wordpress in the past (years), but it occasionally will be the cause on other websites.
After all this time… I turned off private browsing cleaned cookies for safe measure, and…. logged in just fine.

Had the WSOD problem when I updated my website theme. I had no website or admin login tried numerous fixes but to no avail.
The solution that worked for me was to download the latest version of my theme. I renamed previous non functioning theme to themename_old and then uploaded via ftp the replacement theme zip file and extracted the contents and it worked.
The above will work if you have access to cpanel or support at your serverhost can set up and supply you the ftp username, password.
Good luck
