[resolved] Fatal error with 3.2 download (cannot access dashboard) (5 posts)

    I recently installed WordPress 3.2 and now the entire site displays this error code:
    Fatal error: Call to undefined method Arras_Widget_Tag_Cloud::WP_Widget_Tag_Cloud() in /hermes/bosweb/web076/b760/ipg.ileetismcouk/wp-content/themes/arras/library/widgets.php on line 404

    I've subsequently lost access to the dashboard and have to do everything through Filezilla, which I'm new to as of today.

    I have already cleared all plugins, with no change.

    Am I right in thinking this is a problem with the theme? If so, should I delete widgets.php for Arras, delete Arras entirely or attempt to install TwentyEleven through Filezilla (which I am not sure how to do without dashboard access)?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Backup your wp-content/arras folder, then delete that folder, then WordPress should fallback to the twenty eleven theme. Then you can work on solving the problem with the arras theme.

    Just rename your theme. That will force wp to open with twentyeleven.

    Thank you. Renaming the theme enabled me to access the dashboard again.

    I can now uninstall Arras and work on figuring out the issue with it.

    Thanks again!

    Hooray for this thread. Now, I just need to figure out how to work FileZilla myself.
