Comment (by thehrisworld):

 Commented the original line out, inserted the line you provided...
 the json error disappeared and now has an error for a missing table...
 THAT I can handle on MySQL...

 Just went through this exercise with the original json line...
 -- Moved all the plugins to a tmp folder, installed 10 random plugins,
 still had json errors...
 -- Deactivated and removed all plugins...
 -- Changed theme to WP 2015, installed the same 10 plugins, no json
 errors...
 -- Changed theme or original, json errors appeared immediately (refreshing
 the plugins pages does it)...
 We will be replacing the theme if the maker doesn't have a solution...
 (Elegant Themes; Divi)

 Will keep the json line you provided in place which should be reverted
 once the new theme is in place...

 Everything is good here, do I need to close this or do you?
