Hello Andre, Thank you for your reply. I did a full upload, and a refresh, but this does not help. Result is the same.
The site is www.syldesign.nl.
Thanks, Henrie

I just see that more is not working, The forms Contact and Nieuwsbrief on the top-right corner are also not working.
They give the same error message.
So it looks scripting is not working. Should I check someting on the server what is missing?

I uploaded a complete older version of the site of mid October to a test directory on the server, and for that version all scripts are working fine. So the server has no problems with scripting.
Hi Henrie
Are you having issues only with v17 projects? Perhaps your server is running a PHP version lower than 5.6
If so, ask your hosting's support to upgrade that for you, and you should be good to go. V17 requires at least PHP version 5.6 or higher to run properly
Let me know if that fixed it for you
Thank you

Hello Stefano,
The site from October is generated with V16, and that one is running fine. So it may be the PHP version on the server. I will check with the hosting company what PHP version is running and check if they can upgrade.
Thanks so far,
Henrie
Henrie,
normally you can do this yourself in your personal admin page of your webhost.
Else check there FAQ

Hello Stefano, Andre,
The PHP version on the server has been upgraded and know it works again.
Thanks for the support,
Henrie
