PHP Fatal error

[kdaigler]

Had an issue today that has never come up before…my website is and was working fine on the front end, but, as I was told by my webhost rep, my WordPress theme was throwing so many errors that the error file became huge (he said in the Gigabyte range) and was shutting down my CPanel. I have not made any changes to the back-end of the site recently. I am running the latest version of WordPress and, admittedly, an older version of Swagger (v.1.1.4).

The error log contains the lines as shown below (there were many more duplicates, but I deleted the duplicates):

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function themeblvd_get_option() in /home/mywebsite/public_html/wp-content/themes/swagger/index.php on line 19
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_template_directory() in /home/mywebsite/public_html/wp-content/themes/swagger/functions.php on line 13
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function themeblvd_footer_before() in /home/mywebsite/public_html/wp-content/themes/swagger/footer.php on line 18
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function themeblvd_get_part() in /home/mywebsite/public_html/wp-content/themes/swagger/archive.php on line 19
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_header() in /home/mywebsite/public_html/wp-content/themes/swagger/404.php on line 19
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function language_attributes() in /home/mywebsite/public_html/wp-content/themes/swagger/header.php on line 19

When I go to the lines indicated in the error log, they are all in the beginning, in the commented out section. They either have a “*” by itself on the line or a blank line in between other commented out lines. Should I just try removing those particular lines, or do you have another suggestion?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi,

The issue is what you can probably guess and the solution is what you’re probably hoping I wouldn’t say. You must update the theme to the latest version. It’s important that you stay up-to-date with WordPress and at least somewhat up-to-date on the theme. You can grab the latest version of the theme from your ThemeForest downloads page.

This article from the changelog will be most relevant to your update process of the theme:
