  1. HI,

    I updated my site – ekenabay.com with the WPML Multilingual CMS 3.6.3. And after the update I Can’t acces to my wordpress backoffice. I need help.

    Thanks a lot.

    • Same issue here, changing themes doesn’t help either. It is the white screen of death after clicking “activate”.

        • I think the culprit is a call to wp_get_upload_dir() in WPML 3.6.3; this function has been added to wordpress 4.5, so if you update to WPML 3.6.3 on an older wp installation the missing function triggers a fatal error.
          If you are in a hurry and can’t update to WP 4.5+, just put those few lines of code in your theme funcitons.php:

          if (!function_exists(‘wp_get_upload_dir’)){
          function wp_get_upload_dir() {
          return wp_upload_dir( null, false );
          }
          }

    • I can confirm that this works for the issue described by James and invisualL

      Thanks a lot
