Support · incident response

Something broke and you need it fixed today.

Sites down, checkout failures, critical WordPress or WooCommerce errors, forms that stopped sending. We diagnose the cause, apply the fix and explain what happened — no prior contract needed.

To help us respond faster, include
1
What’s failing and since when. The specific symptom and roughly when it started.
2
The affected URL. The page or the exact step where the error happens.
3
The error message. Copied exactly as it appears, or a screenshot.
4
What changed beforehand. An update, a new plugin, a hosting change.
5
Level of urgency. Whether sales are stopped or the site is still operating.
If the site is down, message us on WhatsApp and attach whatever you have to hand. An incomplete message now beats a perfect one in an hour.
At a glance

TouringXX’s Problem Solving & Technical Fixes resolves specific incidents on sites, stores and integrations: outages, critical errors, checkout failures, forms, hosting, SSL, DNS and APIs. It is built for companies that need a one-off fix without signing up for an ongoing service. The expected outcome is the problem solved, documented, with recommendations so it doesn’t recur.

Cause first, fix second

The visible error is almost never the problem. A failing checkout may come from an updated plugin, from a gateway that changed its API or from a conflict with the theme. Applying the first fix found in a forum usually just moves the symptom somewhere else.

The work starts by reproducing the failure and isolating the cause. When urgency demands it, the site is stabilised first — with a temporary solution if needed — and then the root cause is resolved calmly. What we don’t do is touch production blind.

How we work this service

Stabilise, diagnose, resolve, document.

When sales are stopped, order matters: first get the site working again, then understand why it failed. Both get done, but not at the same time.

01 Contact and triage

Urgency is assessed with the details you send and we confirm whether we can take it on.

Recibes: confirmation and assigned priority
02 Stabilisation

If sales are stopped, service is restored first, even with a temporary solution.

Recibes: site operating
03 Diagnosis and fix

The failure is reproduced, the real cause isolated and the definitive correction applied.

Recibes: problem solved at source
04 Documentation

We explain what happened, what was done and what to change to reduce recurrence.

Recibes: report with recommendations
Before touching anything, a backup. Working on a live site without a backup is what turns one problem into two. If there is no recent copy, the first action is to create one, even when urgency pushes to skip the step.
What to expect

Honest about timings — and about what we can promise.

We don’t publish a guaranteed response time because it depends on team availability at that moment and on the type of problem. What we do is reply on whether we can take it on, instead of leaving the message unanswered.

Nor can the cost be estimated before seeing the problem. A configuration error is resolved in minutes; a corrupted database or a compromised site can take days. After the diagnosis we state the scope and agree how to continue.

Reply on whether we can take it on: usually 1–2 business days.
We tell you whether we can take it on
Even if the answer is that there is no immediate availability, your message doesn’t go unanswered.
A backup before intervening
If there is no recent copy, one is created before touching the live site.
No unagreed changes
We state what we are going to do before doing it, unless urgency requires stabilising first.
An explanation in plain language
The report describes what happened understandably, not only with technical logs.
An honest recommendation at close
If the underlying problem is another service — or none at all — we say so clearly.

“Great response time, quality work; he even helped me with a plugin conflict that went beyond the “urgent” installation I hired.”

After the incident

Fixing the failure is the minimum; understanding why it happened is the value.

Every incident closes with an explanation of what happened, what was done and what to change to reduce the chance of it recurring. Sometimes that recommendation is periodic maintenance; sometimes, resolving an underlying technical debt. We say it even when it means selling nothing more.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask mid-emergency

If the site is down right now, write to us first and read this afterwards.

Do we need a contract with you?+
No. This service exists precisely for one-off incidents at companies with no maintenance agreement. The specific problem is solved and that is the end of it, unless you decide to continue with something more.
How quickly do you respond?+
It depends on team availability at that moment and on the type of incident. We don’t publish a guaranteed time because it would be a promise we couldn’t always keep. What we do is reply on whether we can take it on, so you aren’t left waiting.
How much does fixing a problem cost?+
It can’t be estimated before seeing the failure. A configuration error is resolved quickly; a damaged database or a compromised site takes far longer. After the initial diagnosis we state the scope and agree how to continue before working further.
Do you work on sites built by another agency?+
Yes, that is the most common case in this service. Access to the site and the hosting is needed. If the original development has unconventional decisions, we explain how that affects resolution time.
What if the site is compromised or hacked?+
The incident is contained, cleaned and the entry point closed. It is work of unpredictable scope: it may be a single open door or months of undetected access. That is why it is quoted after diagnosis, not before.
Can you just get it working and leave it there?+
We can, but it isn’t always advisable. If the failure comes from an underlying cause — unupdated plugins, insufficient hosting, accumulated technical debt — it will happen again. That is stated in the report, with no obligation to contract anything else.
What if you can’t solve it?+
It can happen: some problems depend on an external provider, a discontinued service or code that is no longer viable to maintain. In those cases we explain what we found, what was ruled out and what alternatives exist, rather than keep billing hours with no way out.
Do you work outside office hours?+
Out-of-hours availability is confirmed case by case. For recurring critical incidents, the sensible route is a maintenance agreement with defined response levels, instead of depending on one-off urgency.

After the emergency

If incidents repeat, the problem isn’t each failure: it is the lack of maintenance.
