[For Hire] Broken WordPress or PHP site after recent host updates? Fast PHP 8.2/8.3 fixes, plugin...

Why Sites Are Breaking Right Now

Following the recent global PHP2Shell security disclosures, hosting providers and server admins are updating to patched PHP 8.2.35+ and 8.3.36 environments. Older PHP 7.x codebases and custom WordPress plugins often crash due to strict type enforcement, removed legacy functions, and unhandled null values.

How I Work (Zero Risk to Your Live Server)

Unlike freelancers who test directly on your live production server and risk database corruption, I do all debugging locally in an isolated PHP 8.3 container:

  • Step 1: You send me your plugin/theme .zip and the error line from your debug.log or server error log (no server passwords required).
  • Step 2: I run static analysis and refactor every deprecated call, type mismatch, and breaking function.
  • Step 3: I test the clean code locally and hand you back a verified patched-files.zip ready to upload.

Services & Pricing

  • Emergency PHP Error / WordPress White-Screen Fix: Flat $100 – $180 per plugin/theme (same-day turnaround).
  • Full Legacy PHP 7.x to PHP 8.3 Codebase Migration: Flat $200 – $450 (depending on project size).
  • "Kill the PHP" Static Rebuild: Flat $250 – $500 to convert brochure sites into zero-maintenance static sites on Cloudflare Pages.
  • Hourly Rate: $30/hour

How to Get Started

Send me a direct message (DM) or chat here on Reddit with:

  • A short description of the issue or the exact Fatal error: line showing in your error log.
  • What CMS or framework you're running (WordPress, Laravel, custom PHP).

I reply quickly and can start working on your fix immediately.
