The theme I have on landofmilfs.com gives me a ‘http error 500’ any time I try to view one of my post. I tried deleting all plugins, editing my htacces file (however it wasn’t in the same folder as wp-content, wp-includes, etc). I even deleted my droplet and tried reinstalling it. It’s not the theme because I bought a hostgator plan and it works just fine on there.
Any help would be loved as I love digital ocean!

Hi @ensurance
My guess would be that your theme is doing something, which is not compatible with PHP 7.0, which is the default version delivered with Ubuntu 16.04
Have a look in your Apache log file to get more details - run this command:
tail -30 /var/log/apache/error.log
If you’re able to post single.php, we can take a closer look to see if there’s anything we can spot if you’re unable to. A second set of eyes generally helps :-).
WordPress generally uses:
while ( expr ) :
do stuff ....
endwhile;
So you’re most likely missing the endwhile; at the end (at least according to that error).
