 * I am getting this message on my home page (ohgunner.com) and also on the page
   after logging in to wordpress. Anyone know what to do? I don’t even know what
   version I’m using because I can’t log in.
 * Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_get_theme() in /home2/jpapesh/public_html/
   wp-content/themes/themify-base/themify/themify-utils.php on line 16

 * do you have access to your hostgator webhosting account?
 * i **suspect** the problem is just a glitch in the installation of the theme that
   has caused the error.
    the solution is to delete the theme. you can delete the
   theme from your hostgator file manager or FTP. let me know if you are able to
   access your host gator account.

 * i think you may get this error beacaue you have older version of wordpress installed.
   try to update it.
    or if you have install new theme than use FTP and delete that
   theme basically (landing pages) cause these problem,delete that theme folder 
   and than check your website. _[ [Signature moderated](http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#Signatures)]_

 * Thanks to the both of you – you were both very helpful! I was able to get Hostgator
   to remove the theme (thanks contentiskey). Apparently I installed an old version
   without knowing it. Heart2hack – you were right on!
