Help! screwed up code in main index template

  • Whoops. I tried to add a “digg this” button and I’ve done something wrong. Now instead of the stuff about comments at the bottom of my post, I just see Edit’)); ?>. Here’s what the section of code looks like now. Can anyone please tell me how to fix it? I know zip about css. I thought I had saved a backup of the template but unfortunately screwed that up too! Please help!

    <div class="entrymeta"><a href="https://del.icio.us/post">)+'&title='+encodeURIComponent(<?php the_title() ?>),'delicious', 'toolbar=no,width=700,height=400'); return false;"> Bookmark on del.icio.us</a>
    	<the_time('F dS, Y'); echo " | Category: ";the_category(','); echo " | ";

	comments_popup_link( 'No comments ',
						 '1 comment ',
						 '% comments ',
						 'comments-link ',
						 'Comments are off for this post ');
	edit_post_link(__('<strong>Edit</strong>'));
	?>

  • Get a fresh copy of your theme (download and extract it again) and overwrite the bad one with your ftp program. Then install the “Share This” plugin…

    What is the share this plugin?

    Share this lets readers add a post or page to many different services like Digg, Technorati, etc.
    You can see it on my test blog – just click the “share this” link under the 1st post.

    Thanks, that sounds like a great idea!! I guess if I upload the theme again I will have to re-do any change I’ve made (like adding my feedburner thingie) … that’ll teach me to go fiddling around without saving a backup first!! Thanks again for your help

    Well… You can try to compare the edited file with the fresh one and undo just the last changes :).
