    I’ve put this in the installation thread too, but it’s not showing up and this is pretty urgent…

    Have just upgraded to WP 2.2 from 2.1.3 and am panicking slightly at this error that comes up when trying to access certain pages in WP Admin or on my site itself!? Any ideas please. Here’s the error in it’s entirety;

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: is_active_module() in /home/.minie/trailofants/trailofants.com/wp-content/themes/k2/app/includes/info.php on line 186

    Thanks,
    Ant

  • thats an issue with k2

    that function didn’t exist within the core of WP 2.1.x nor does it exist within 2.2

    I suggest looking through what is available on Google and posting your problem to the k2 support forum.

    Im NOT trying to brush you off with a link to Google; that is what I would do in a similar situation.

    This is completely ridiculous! Why didn’t WordPress give me some warning that WP 2.2 and K2 just don’t get along right now?! The result is my site is looking a complete mess and I’ve lost all the work I’d put into the sidebar just because WP want to steamroll a widget fetish!?

    When I go to try and fix it up I’m redirected to Automattic to be smugly told “themes that don’t support widgets will, if you believe our crystal ball, become very unpopular very fast.” and then when you think they’re not smug enough “We’re sorry if that seems threatening. It hurt us more than it hurt you. Please fix up your theme.”.

    Rant over, but still fuming at the way I’ve been duped into this!

    umm, why do you think it falls to WordPress to tell you that basically a modification made for WordPress may not work for it????

    Excuse me for asking, but don’t you find that a little ass-backwards?

    While I am a frequent critic of how some things are handled, I remain happy, in fact I’m giddy over the fact, that the WordPress developers continue to code as THEY see fit, irrespective of what theme/mod makers like those behind k2 might dream up.

    Take your rant to k2. Thats where the responsibility in supporting THEIR code lies. They had as much access the SVN as anyone else here did, that was interested in seeing the direction that things were moving.

    Apparently, they werent interested.

    and fyi, that widget ‘fetish’ you speak of? : The whole idea of using widgets inside WordPress was dreamed up by Matt M.

    Talk about someone being smug.

    Hi,
    I have the same error:
    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: is_wp_error() in /home/eofe/public_html/kruzyk/wp-includes/functions.php on line 1320

    This is a new installation.
    Someone please help me.

    /edit:
    It’s no problem now. I don’t know why but I must wait few minutes :/

    Unfortunately, none of the above suggestions fixed my problem. After a grep for the function names that were deemed to be missing, I added the following lines in wp-includes/functions.php, and now everything seems to work fine:

    Was:
    <?php
    require_once(dirname(__FILE__).’/compat.php’);

    Changed to:

    <?php
    require_once(dirname(__FILE__).’/compat.php’);
    require_once(dirname(__FILE__).’/classes.php’);
    require_once(dirname(__FILE__).’/plugin.php’);

    The rest of the file was left unchanged.

    &

    Terribly sorry! PLEASE IGNORE MY PREVIOUS POST. That introduces further errors down the line.

    However, I believe I have fixed it. The issue seems to be related to the absence of the wp-config.php file. WordPress supplies a wp-config-sample.php file. Rename this to wp-config.php, and edit it for the right usernames and passwords – you should be up and running now.

    Hope this helps you.

    &
