Backend dev seeking UI Design and Implementation advice

hello y'all, so mainly I'm a back-end dev but in my company (especially since it's startup) and with the current state of development and how much is it powered by AI what is required from us in team has expanded beyond our actual roles, need advice on what to do to improve my outcome one the front-end side of things, both on code quality and UI quality in terms of look and functionality.
feel free to ask if more details are needed...

SMPT timing out. Can’t send emails. Any ideas?

Running a Wordpress site hosted on GoDaddy (not my choice) and all emails are timing out. There is no domain-specific email set up, so I’m attempting to use Post SMTP to send emails through a email account.

Tests already checked and thing done:

\- attempts using both ports 465 and 587.

\- yahoo external app password created.

\- test emails sent from both a PC and Mac.

\- Active fire wall turned off.

\- connection on WiFi and from mobile hotspot.

\- successfully connected to SMTP port 465 via telnet cmd in terminal.

\- SPF record added to domain DNS.

\- created an ini.php file and increased max timeout limit to 180.

\- wordfence plugin turned off.

\- successful test email sent using an smtp checker tool.

Maybe this should be posted in the Wordpress sub, so remove if it’s not good here. I’m at a loss what might be the issue. Maybe it’s a plugin conflict but if anyone has a suggestion on what else I can try to get it working, I’d appreciate it. Thanks.

Finding it impossible to solve problems

Hey guys. I'm a web developer and have a job but unsure if I can pass future interviews, because when I get a technical question like a basic loop problem, "program that starts counting from **1** and increases by **1** during each iteration, stopping once it reaches 5**".** This is incredibly incompetent and concerning, not to mention AI has made me worse.

What's the solution to this? I can memorize solutions but what happens when a new problem comes up in an interview and I can't remember the syntax even if I know I need a loop or some thing else to solve a problem? I feel like crying
