Probably a redirection issue.

Whats the website?

its blog undersonctrction yet-

it only happen i keep chenage many things in the theme options at the same time 

That suggests you are affecting the configuration of the site.

It may be under construction but if it’s been uploaded to a server then the url will be accessible.

Whats the url of the site?

Some plugins will throw an error if you're referencing them in your templates. Plugins that affect only the admin area are usually fine.

Your issue with being redirected is very strange. Normally you see that screen when you've added your database credentials but haven't ran the installer. The only thing I can think of is you're browsing to an incorrect URL that's triggering the installer for no reason, once you've set WordPress up with a populated database you shouldn't see that screen again.

Yes.

But it depends on the plugin.

You are using the 2020 theme - what changes to the theme are you making?

WordPress is a blogging system so the answer should be 0 plugins.

Are you editing the theme code or just using the built in functions? If it's the former - don't do this.

How are you doing this? Are you using the plugin installer?

You are using a free hosting service. They don't appear to offer email.

The are a whole load of reasons why your chosen host is the wrong one. For starters you don't get an SSL, something Google and many browsers no longer like.

----

im just confused now.. who give me the sll ( secure layer socket ) ? the web host website ? or the domain comapny ?

The hosting company can provide the SSL - but you have to pay for it.

I think all your problems are because you are using a free hosting service. There will always be limitations.

They probably use the cPanel control panel as they have a feature called 'Auto SSL'. It's just normal SSL certs. If you don't mind using an old-school control panel you should be fine.

If you need your site to be fast, you're better off using 100% SSD, but if speed isn't a problem (and your site doesn't have lots of slow-loading content, complex code and large file sizes) then HDD should be fine for you.

Yes, it will make your site https and slightly more likely to rank higher on Google than sites without https - although for SEO there are far more important things (mainly: good content!).

Most free SSLs are provided by Let's Encrypt and there is no difference between them: they're just mathematics!

Some paid SSL certs come with warranties and the like but you won't need anything like that on your site at this stage.

You need to activate it using your web host/domain provider's control panel. It may be done for you automatically, dependent on who you host with.
