   Please help, I am in danger of losing even more hair.

   I've installed the latest version of WP and finally got it up and running. I already knew of a theme I wanted to apply, so I downloaded and installed Neutica by Allan Cole. http://www.allancole.com/themes/neutica/

   While I was messing around and learning what everything did, I tried installing the Theme Switcher widget, which promptly broke, leaving absolutely no way of removing the widget from the page - the moveable box on the right hand bar in the widgets menu has disappeared.

   All I get is this error message:

   %BEG_OF_TITLE%Theme Switcher%END_OF_TITLE%

   Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_theme_switcher() in /home/brokenre/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/themes/neutica-theme-109/neutica/functions.php on line 327

   You can see for yourself at http://www.broken-record.com

   Now... is there some way I can manually edit this out? (I cannot find any call up for it in the sidebar.php text) Even better, is there some way that I can completely reset the adjustments to the theme? I've tried re-downloading and overwriting the files on my web host, but the page still reverts back to any design changes I made. Infuriating!

   Help!

   @minimal1210
   Hi, if you ftp to your site and delete the neutica-theme-109
   Then clear your browser cache and cookies and log back in, it should revert to your default theme.
   hope you get there.

   Try deleting the plugin itself--wp-content/plugins/theme_switcher_file_or_folder.

   oops, my fault, by reading your post I made the wrong assumption that theme switcher was part of your neutica theme, obviously not, its the theme switcher that needs deleting. Thanks to MichaelH for noticing.

   I just checked the blog of kheesiong
   Seems to be the same problem, and still looks as though the error is coming from the theme.

   Right, I fixed mine.

   I did this by finding the 'functions.php' file from my ftp client and open it up either on dreamweaver or textedit. Now find line 317 to 336 which contains this:

   // Theme Switcher
   function widget_themeswitch($args) {
   extract($args);
   ?>
   <?php echo $before_widget; ?>
   <?php echo $before_title
   . 'Theme Switcher'
   . $after_title; ?>

   • <?php wp_theme_switcher(); ?>

   <?php echo $after_widget; ?>
   <?php
   }
   register_sidebar_widget('Theme Switcher',
   'widget_themeswitch');

   delete this and put it back where you found it. Then thats it sorted.
