Could get any page back, so i restored all teh files. * Now i’m back to the initial problem. * Beside acting dumb at the beguining of this topic, i have to admit i have absolutly no knowledge in PHP. * I paid a guy to create that blog and i still get lots of errors, without having news from the coder. * esmi, thanks a lot. I really appréciate that you tried to help someone like me, with a fantastic “Zero level”. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/deadly-modification/#post-2355377) * Read that page again. If you can, use Method 2 – editing your theme’s function. php file. Follow the instructions **very carefully** and ensure that you add exactly what that section recommends and that you do not remove anything. * If that still fails, you may have to consider [hiring someone](http://jobs.wordpress.net/) to carry this out for you. For an experienced WP developer, it’s a pretty quick job, so it should be relatively inexpensive. * Thread Starter [Nekom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nekom/) * (@nekom) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/deadly-modification/#post-2355378) * Great! using method 2 again (but correctly this time…) i was able to get almost everything working back. * The blog is working fine, even if i have a php error message on top of it. * ERROR_TITLE*/’WordPress » Erreur’/*/WP_I18N_ERROR_TITLE*/, array(‘text_direction’ => $text_direction)); } ?> * I’ll try to understand what it means and to fix it if i can, otherwise, i’ll check how much it will cost to hire someone to fix it, and maybe update the WP revision. * Thanks for you very usefull help and patience. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/deadly-modification/#post-2355379) * Is this an English WordPress install or it it using another language? * Thread Starter [Nekom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nekom/) * (@nekom) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/deadly-modification/#post-2355380) * It’s an english install, would have been great if it was in french… * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/deadly-modification/#post-2355381) * Then it’s possible that you still have a damaged wp-config.php file. * Thread Starter [Nekom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nekom/) * (@nekom) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/deadly-modification/#post-2355382) * I don’t have a safe backup of that file… (my host is blocking the FTP if i access it too much, so my last backup attempt failled) * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/deadly-modification/#post-2355383) * You could try manually re-recreating the wp-config.php file using the wp-config- sample.php file as a template. * Thread Starter [Nekom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nekom/) * (@nekom) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/deadly-modification/#post-2355384) * Thanks fo the advice. I’ll try to do this tomorrow. I’m not sure i’ll be able to spot the error, because all that stuff has no meaning for me. Almost sure i’ll copy the error at the same time, but i’m 100% sure i will not do any better today. (+1gmt) * Thanks a lot for your help, and i’m sorry i’m such a noob. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/deadly-modification/#post-2355385) * No problem.
