 * Hello, networkmom, & welcome. Gosh there’s a lot you don’t tell us, ie, whether
   your host is shared, VPS, or dedicated; what your version of PHP is; & no site
   url for us to have a look.
 * Some hosting providers allow upgrading of the PHP version in their control panel.
   If you have old plugins &/or themes on your site, however, they may not function
   after the upgrade. It’s always best to go through your site from time to time,&
   if a plugin or theme hasn’t been updated in a year or more, to try to find more
   current software that will meet your needs. You might also try contacting your
   host & see if perchance they can assist. Disabling all plugins to see if the 
   problem goes away & then re-enabling them 1 by 1 till the problem reappears will
   let you know the culprit plugin. Also, changing to a default theme (the theme
   name will always begin w/twenty) as a temporary measure to see if the problem
   goes away. If so, then pretty clearly the theme is at fault.
 * Hopefully you’ll find some of this helpful. Please let us know.

 * Denise, I’m curious about something–how did you find out about this error in 
   the first place, ie, is your website not working correctly If that’s the case,
   what problems are you experiencing w/it.
 * If you provide the address of your site, we might be able to determine some of
   the answers to the queries I posed.

 * I went into wordpress to install a theme I just purchased, Moto theme and did
   what the instruction told me to do. The error runs down the whole page inside
   wordpress, not sure if it is causing a problem with my site or not but it sure
   is annoying. My site is [http://www.fitnessandkids.com](http://www.fitnessandkids.com)
   I think the theme is better when you don’t already have content and starting 
   from scratch because I can not even figure out how to edit my home page, it is
   blank when I go into word press and try to edit home page. sorry but this stuff
   is confusing to me.

 * Denise, please do not panic. Your site is very likely intact. I would not try
   editing it now, but it is very probable that the site can be reclaimed.
 * It appears your host is ITX Designs. Their address is [http://www.itxdesigns.com](http://www.itxdesigns.com).
   They may or may not be willing or able to help.
 * Next, since you have purchased a theme, you may wish to consider contacting the
   vendor for support.
 * Lastly, if all else fails, you can always post a job opening at:
    [http://jobs.wordpress.net](http://jobs.wordpress.net)
 * I spoke earlier in a previous post about logging into your hosting provider’s
   control panel. If I am correct that your host is ITX Designs, then the way you
   do that is to type:
    [http://fitnessandkids.com/cpanel](http://fitnessandkids.com/cpanel)&
   enter the username & password your host provided when you signed up for their
   service.
 * Your site does appear to have the Mo
