   Hi,
   HELP.
   I was doing some editing of code on my site, trying to get ride of a footer link and ended up taking my site down. http://www.JerryFurst.com

   I did take a peek at the SQL database and removed 1 used that looked odd, but made no other changes.

   Anyone help, Please!!!!
   thanks,
   Jerry

   yep, I got it. Database connection problem. Still trying to get rid of the footer link, though.

   It should be in the footer.php.

   thanks for the help....they have it coded beyond the scope of my understanding. When I took the code out, the site goes down.

   Here's the code:
   this is in the footer.php

   <div id="footer-left">
   <?php /* WARNING: YOUR SITE MAY STOP WORKING IF THESE LINKS ARE MODIFIED IN ANY WAYS */?>
   DarkHive <a href="http://www.magpress.com" title="WordPress Theme">WordPress Theme</a> By MagPress<span class="credit">Thanks To <a href="http://nhshospitaljobs.com" title="NHS Hospital Jobs">NHS Hospital Jobs</a> | <a href="http://nhsnursetraining.com" title="NHS Nurse Training">NHS Nurse Training</a> | <a href="http://nhsjobslondon.com" title="NHS Jobs London">NHS Jobs London</a></span>
   </div>

   and in the Index.php file:

   <?php if ((!function_exists("check_theme_footer") || !function_exists("check_theme_header"))) { ?><?php { /* nothing */ } ?><?php } else { ?>
   
   <?php get_header(); ?>

   [Please post code snippets between backticks or use the code button.]

   I'm not sure where to find the "Check_theme_footer" function...
   thanks again,
   Jerry

   Try to remove:

   <?php if ((!function_exists("check_theme_footer") || !function_exists("check_theme_header"))) { ?><?php { /* nothing */ } ?><?php } else { ?>

   and the last line: <?php } ?>

   Well, I tried as you suggested, which is a good idea, but got this error when loading the site in a browser:

   Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in /home/content/j/e/r/jerryfurst/html/wp-content/themes/darkhive/index.php on line 97

   This is the code at the bottom and line 97 is at the end:
   </div><!-- POST ENTRY END -->
   <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/paginate.php'); ?>
   </div><!-- CONTENT END -->
   <?php get_sidebar(); ?>
   <?php get_footer(); ?>
   <?php } ?>

   thanks for taking the time...
   Jerry

   you shouldn't use any theme with encrypted stuff unless you enjoy the risk of your site getting hacked and/or spreading spam & viruses

   You need to remove <?php } ?> as well.
