   I tried to install the twitter blog plugin on my blog at http://www.dentisterie.ws, and installation failed. Not only that, but my whole admin area is no longer available. When I log in to my admin area at:

   http://dentisterie.ws/wp-admin/

   I get this error message on every page:

   Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init() in /home/dentiste/public_html/wp-content/plugins/twitter-blog/twitter-blog.php on line 338

   and all the features of my admin area have disappeared.

   I am stuck. Can anyone help?

   ftp to site or use host's file manager to rename the plugin
   this deactivates it and will allow you to log in

   Probably don't have the libcurl included on your hosting acc, which you need for that plugin to work, as it relies on the cURL functions, it seems.
   If it's a shared hosting, contact your hoster if it's possible to include the libcurl for your webhost.
   If you have ssh with admin access, install libcurl ;)

   /edit: and yes, follow samboll's advise to get into your admin area back first :)

   Thanks samboll, I followed your advice and I now have access to my Dashboard. :)

   And thank you, rsciw, for your advice as well. I will contact my web host about libcurl.
