I put up a promo on my socials with a link to my website, I tested it to find a 503 error and now I can't load Word Press either. Is anyone else having any problems today?

you mean you can't get into your own wordpress admin page for your self hosted website?

Did your wordpress do an update last night? If so did you get an email saying it has an issue or that you needed to login with recovery mode or anything?

If I try to go onto it through my admin - I get a message to say that it has reloaded too many times and to clear my cache, which I did but still couldn't load. The 503 message comes if you try to get onto the website as the public would :-(

I've tried both ways - Can't get on the web page either way.

Looks like it could be a plugin causing the conflict

Now this is weird, I did the first bit and I can now get onto my page for the public view but I cannot load my admin page

Am really panicking now - my website is live but I cannot access it at all. I am going to contact HostPresto as I have tried everything on those site. Gutted as I really don't need this at the moment. I have so much I wanted to do this weekend

Hostpresto should be able to help you out / rollback

if I was to guess though this has happened because of a plug-in upgrade gone wrong

Fingers crossed I know I am being melodramatic, but it now means a lot to me after a year (wow and I am totally invested in it). At least people can visit my website now, I just will have wait! Thanks for your help. It is much appreciated

Still waiting on Host Presto to get back to me :( I am very busy with other work, am on a mission to chase it up this afternoon. I may also try deactivating my theme. I am just really worried about fiddling with the site and losing all my work.

Your content will be in the database so turning off themes / plugins shouldn't effect that

i'm still convinced that something (one of the plugins etc.) tried to do an update, it did it and something was incompatible and it's just now having a mood about it!

ah ok

so one of your themes / plugins needed a later version of PHP than you were running

You can see which version / upgrade yourself in cpanel
