 * All of a sudden I received this message when I was in the admin area of my wordpress
   site:
 * Fatal error: Call to undefined function screen_icon() in /home/content/43/10798143/
   html/wp-content/themes/fastblog/options.php on line 12
 * I was trying to activate a new theme.
 * Now the same message appears when I go to my website.
 * Does anyone know how to fix it? I can’t even access the admin area so I don’t
   know what to do.

 * You’ll need to use FTP or Cpanel access to change the deactivate or delete that
   theme – you can find it here:
 *     ```
       wp-content
            themes
               fastblogHOLD
       ```

 * WPyogi suggested to rename the theme folder Fastblog to FastblogHOLD. That way
   you would de-activate the theme that caused the initial error.

 * **[@crioloradio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/crioloradio/)** – that’s
   because you are not using that theme and this is NOT your thread – please start
   your own per the forum guidelines –

 * Deleting the theme in the FTP fixed it. Thank you!
