WordPress login via JCP shows a critical error

29 Apr, 2026 Jolt Control Panel, Access, WordPress

If you’re using JCP‘s WordPress SSO feature to access the dashboard and see the error message “There has been a critical error on this site”, it usually means the WordPress user that JCP is trying to use has changed.

To clear the issue, trigger a manual refresh of the WordPress installation under the WordPress manager in JCP

Once the refresh has been completed, try using the WordPress login button again.

If you continue to hit issues whilst logging in, please don’t hesitate to contact us and we’ll be happy to help
