#1

Hi hoping to get some direction on how to fix this?
Something went wrong
Unexpected error: unserialize(): Error at offset 0 of 19 bytes in PublisherConfig.php on line 1
running PHP7.4
The shell of the website opens but when I click on the galleries menu I get the above error message

thanks
John

Hi John, it looks like either one or some of your Backlight files are corrupted, or something else is wrong with PHP on that server.
When did this start happening?

Can you try the following:

  1. Log into Backlight admin
  2. Visit Admin > Backlight Modules
  3. On the line with module-publisher, click Reinstall
  4. Confirm by clicking ‘Reinstall’ on the next page.

If that doesn’t help or you’re getting similar errors regarding other files, then try clicking Reinstall All under the Backlight name on the Backlight Modules page.

Thanks Ben,
Appreciate the quick response. Reinstalling the Publisher module fixed it. Hope you are managing the quarantining in Melbourne.
