Do you have a ‘header.php’ file? have you edited your ‘header.php’ file?
Yes, in the Mantra theme directory:
http://www.benlinders.com/wp-content/themes/mantra/
And no, I didn’t change the header.php file
can you use pastebin.com to post your ‘index.php’.
Here it is:
<?php
/**
* The main template file.
*
* This is the most generic template file in a WordPress theme
* and one of the two required files for a theme (the other being style.css).
* It is used to display a page when nothing more specific matches a query.
* E.g., it puts together the home page when no home.php file exists.
* Learn more: http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy

that looks like the index file that should be in your theme directory. outside of your theme directory should be an index file that loads wordpress and your theme.
that index file you posted is looking for a function that it doesn’t think exists.
The errors message comes from this file, line 14 in /storage/web/public/sites/www.benlinders.com/wp-content/themes/mantra/index.php
Which is a call to get_header();
Question is where to find get_header(). Normally it should be in header.php, right? I checked, it’s not in there.
get_header() is a function that gets the ‘header.php’ file of your theme. that function is not in your header file, it is probably in the wp-includes folder. Do you have an ‘index.php’ file outside of your wp-content folder?
yes, in the main directory of the site. Guess that’s where it should be?
Not really. There are several index files in a wordpress install. i was just wondering if you had the proper index file outside your theme that was properly loading wordpress and your theme. im trying to troubleshoot from afar…
Really appreciate your help.
The website loads and looks ok, but I’m trying to get rid of error messages in the log file. That’s why I’m wondering where the get_header() would normally go?
get_header goes on template pages usually, or if no template pages are being used, ‘papge.php’ and then ‘index.php’ it is a function that gets the ‘header.php’ file.
I’m trying to get this. Should there be a header function somewhere? How bad is it when this error occurs?
I’m not sure where the get_header function is, or even how it works exactly. I imagine it is in the wordpress core somewhere.
And I’m not sure how bad it is when that error happens. I imagine it would be real bad if it caused your site not to load. I personally have never experienced it before.
Yes, the site does load so it doesn’t seem to be a big problem. I’m hoping on people from Cryout creations to react, as it’s their theme Mantra.
