 * Currently having the following error on one page template only.
    I am not the
   designer of this template and I have no idea how to fix this and want to avoid
   paying for someone to do so.
 * the error is: Fatal error: Class ‘ACF_WP_Query’ not found in /home/reddust-main/
   website/htdoc/wp-content/themes/red_dust/template-tours.php on line 283
 * If someone could tell me how to fix this that would be great!!

 * to make sure your theme is not the problem, for a moment try switching to the
   unedited default theme (twenty eleven) by renaming your current theme’s folder
   in wp-content/themes. The idea is to force WordPress to fall back to the default
   theme to rule out any theme-specific issue.
 * If you don’t have access to your admin area, then access your server via FTP 
   or SFTP or whatever file management application your host provides.

 * Tried the above, looks like it is a problem with the template. I think it occurred
   after a scheduled update.
 * If I can change the code on the template or something can someone please let 
   me know what that could be??

 * Try check whether your theme requires any update or anything that is compatible
   to your current wordpress version or not.

 * I’m going to make an absolute stab-in-the-dark. “ACF” is often associated with“
   Advanced Custom Fields”. By chance, does your Theme use/rely on the [Advanced Custom Fields Plugin](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/)?
 * (Looks like class [ACF_WP_QUERY _is_ part of this Plugin](http://advancedcustomfields.com/support/discussions/tagged/acf_wp_query/p1).)
 * Try installing/activating (or updating) the Plugin, and see if the fatal error
   is resolved.
