    I activated a new theme and somehow caused a fatal error.

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function add_image_size() in /data/19/1/79/84/1894573/user/2060934/htdocs/yenterco/wp-content/themes/parabola/includes/theme-loop.php on line 264

    The site is down and I need some help.

  • FTP into your site (or whatever file management application your host provides) & rename the wp-content/themes/parabola folder to wp-content/themes/parabola-old. This should automatically activate the default theme and bring your site back up.

    Esmi,
    I managed to change the file name to parabola-old, and the fatal error has disappeared. Sadly I now just have a blank page. Thoughts?

    Re-upload a fresh, unpacked, copy of the Twenty Fourteen folder to wp-content/themes using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides.

    Well I can’t seem to figure the folder upload procedure out but I found a workaround. Removing the fatal error allowed me to again access the site log in page and I was able to apply the default theme for now. The site is back up and running. Thanks very much!!!

    Glad to hear that you have access to your site again. ??
