Confirm and go to payment page leads to a blank page

I have inserted all of Event Espresso’s pages (Registration, Transactions..etc) all with the proper shortcodes. But when I try do checkout (tried it with Sandbox on and off) and click on the Confirm and go to payment page, it directs me to a blank page. However if I manually enter the url into a different window (http://www.cbbeerfest.com/tickets/?page_id=82&regevent_action=post_multi_attendee) it brings me to the correct page on paypal.

Not sure what I might be doing wrong. Any help is much appreciated

Hi Shayna,

Did you manually create the required Event Espresso pages or were they created automatically? Can you make sure you are editing the pages using the “Text” view (example screenshot: http://www.screencast.com/t/Fz1e7yEuru) to make sure there’s no additional code surrounding the shortcodes?

Seth,
The pages were automatically created. I did re-name the registration page and the permalink. Just took a look at the text view on the pages and all looks good there, no additional code surrounding the shortcodes.

Hi Shayna,

I think this might have something to do with the way permalinks are set up. It’s throwing a 500 error when it goes to the payment page. It might be something as simple as going to the WordPress>Settings>Permalinks settings screen and saving.

It could be that the server is running low on memory too. You can try increasing the memory limit in the wp-config.php file.

You can use an [FTP client][1] and [a text editor][2] to access and add this line to the site’s wp-config.php file:
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');

While you’re editing, it may help to turn on debug mode and that may help to troubleshoot if there is a PHP error being thrown when it tries to load the payment overview page.

Please refer to the [WordPress codex][3] for more info.

None of the suggested solutions seemed to work, so I deactivated and deleted all Event Espresso files and pages, then re-downloaded and installed new ones. Seems to work now. Thanks!
