    Accepted solution

    going forward: disable auto-updates for big plugins like page builders and e-commerce add-ons, update them on staging first, and keep a backup youve actually tested restoring. many hosts offer one-click staging for exactly this. worked for me anyway 🤷

    @mutex_monk omggg the debug log pointed straight at a forms plugin. Deleted its folder, reinstalled the latest version, site works. Thank u so much!
