My WordPress website is showing database connection errors from time to time. This site is important for my Auto Body Shop, as customers rely on it for service information. What usually causes this issue, and how can it be fixed safely?

Database errors on WordPress are often caused by incorrect login details, corrupted tables, or temporary server issues. For an Auto Body Shop website, the first step is to check the database credentials in the wp-config.php file. Even small changes during updates or hosting moves can cause errors.

Another common reason is database corruption, which can happen after plugin conflicts or failed updates. Using the hosting control panel to repair the database usually solves this. It’s also important to keep WordPress, themes, and plugins updated to prevent future problems.

Regular backups and basic maintenance help keep the site stable and accessible for customers.
