I am trying to:
Access media library, it started after getting ssl on that domain. Everything was fine until I tried accessing media library and could not, disabling plugins made it work, then after enabling one by one found that types was causing it. Looking at the console revealed that error

Hi Pedro

The JS message is telling you that there is a 500 error on the server, but to see what the actual PHP error is you need to examine your site's logs.

If you haven't already, turn on the debug log by editing your wp-config.php file and change the line with WP_DEBUG like so:

define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);

That will create a debug.log file in your wp-content directory which you can examine in any text editor. Try visiting the same page where you observe the problem and then inspect the log. There you should see a fatal PHP error.

Please paste that here for me to see, thanks.

I have decided to just make the custom post types and fields myself on this project so no more issues and also no more types plugin installed. I have been using types and your payed toolset for quite some time now on WordPress projects, mostly because it saves me time and it just works, but I really don't have the time to be chasing bugs, not on this project anyway, thanks, and sorry if any other user is facing the same problem

I have this same problem. It's also mentioned here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/types-causing-500-error-in-admin-ajax-php/

Specifically, this is the problem:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home/content/03/6999803/html/wp-content/plugins/types/vendor/toolset/types/embedded/admin.php on line 395

If I remove the "else" part of the conditional statement on line 395, then my site will function again. So, of course that is only a temporary solution. What should I do?
