This started happening to me today too. I even made a new website under infinityfree but it has the same issue as well. I’m guessing it’s a infinityfree-wide issue.

[brianf]

Yeah. Unfortunate. I had just revamped my whole site, ahaha.

I have tried this fix already. It did not work and caused my website to display a white page when I added the code to the wp-config file.

Why i can't visit my website

Hey there, It seems the system is having some kind of issue with PHP. There’s nothing you can do about it. All we have to do is wait until the admin fixes it.

[TahmidurRahmanLabib]

Any idea when it will be fixed?

[Herbert]

Sorry i have no idea when will it be fixed, please be patient about it.

i can install plugin with this code on wp-config.php, paste this code at end of the file. but it can’t upload any media. no idea.

/** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. */
if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {
	define( 'ABSPATH', __DIR__ . '/' );
}

define( 'WP_TEMP_DIR', ABSPATH . '/wp-content/temp/') ;

and then add folder in wp-content with name temp, change the permission folder to 755

Please read this;

Hey everyone, please read this!

The system is having some issues with the PHP; you will encounter problems such as 500 errors, files not being uploaded, or data not being inserted into your database. Please don’t create the same topic about this; I’ve replied to a dozen of them. All we have to do is be patient and wait until the admin fixes this. Thanks!

i tried everything but nothing is working.
i also deleted my whole website

You shouldn’t have done that; always check the forums to be sure whether it’s an issue with you or with the system.
