Hey Walker,
What’s your web host provider? I’m no expert myself, but I got myself in the same situation (without this plugin). I contacted my host tech support – In Motion hosting – and they were able to fix it for me no problem…it was like magic.
But anyways, I’m wondering if I shouldn’t use this plugin if that could happen? I’m tired of figuring out all this FTP stuff to make a child theme by myself…
