Updating Failed: Could Not Update Post in Database (WordPress Issue)

Hosting Support

Hi, I’m using WordPress on my InfinityFree site (subdomain: shehzilrealm.rf.gd), and I’ve been facing an error while trying to update or publish my blog posts.

The error message is:

“Updating failed. Could not update post in the database.”

Here’s what I’ve tried:

  • Removed all images from the blog.
  • Tried publishing with just the title — that works.
  • Cleared cache and tried both visual and text editors.

I’m not sure if the issue is with the database connection or phpMyAdmin setup. How can I confirm or fix this?

I’d appreciate any help or guidance. Thanks!

I’ve seen this a few times when people have posts with emoji’s or none standard characters in it.

Does your post have any of these that could be causing the problem?
