Fatal error after changing theme

    I run my school’s ASB website, so this website isn’t technically mine. As a result, I don’t have much clue as to how to use the website past the basic things like making/editing posts and installing plugins. When I activated the BonPress theme (http://www.wpzoom.com/themes/bonpress/), I got a fatal error that looked like this:

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare the_content_limit() (previously declared in /home/barons10/public_html/wp-content/plugins/limit-post-add-on/limit-post.php:11) in /home/barons10/public_html/wp-content/themes/bonpress/functions/wpzoom-functions.php on line 442

    Now I can’t access anything. What should I do?

    either disable the plugin or the theme through FTP.

    I tried using Filezilla and establishing a connection, but the status box keeps saying “critical error” and “cannot connect to server.” The username and password I use for Filezilla is the same as the one I use to sign into WordPress for the website, right?

    I also tried connecting to the server without using a username and password, but it wouldn’t let me see the files.

    So…could you share what you did to fix it with the rest of the class? Just ran into this error myself on a different WPZoom theme–but same function error.
