 * I am getting a weird error message when I try to save a post. Also, it doesn’t
   seem to recognize paragraph breaks. Does anyone know what this means? Thanks 
   in advance!
 * _Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output 
   started at /home/walking4/public\_html/wp-content/plugins/hello.php:726) in /
   home/walking4/public\_html/wp-includes/classes.php on line 805_

 * Most likely you have code that is trying to send header data to the browser using
   this php function:
 * `header("LOCATION:<yourpage.html>");`
 * this one directs the browser to another page, but it has other uses.
 * You can’t use this function in a stream after ANY data is sent to the browser,
   even
    `<html>`
 * I think the offending header function is in wp-content/plugins/hello.php. You
   might try de-activating this plugin to see if that is the cause.

 * Thank you, mechx1. That’s the problem exactly. I couldn’t get a Stats plugin 
   to work so I copied and pasted the php code overtop of a different plugin I had
   in my directory. Even though it showed up on my page, apparently it doesn’t work
   that way! I deactivated the plugin and everything is back to normal. I’ll try
   to figure out why the plugin isn’t showing up in WP even though I’m pretty sure
   I unzipped it properly in BlueHost. Blah!
