• I’ve uploaded a theme I was editing and got an error I have caused a fatal error which cannot allow me to even log into the backend

    Fatal error: Call to a member function add_section() on null in /home/runningw/public_html/test/wp-content/themes/travel-lite/inc/customize.php on line 331

    http://test.runningwild.co.ke/wp-admin/ and the folder travel-lite also does not seem to exist I assume wordpress may have removed it.

    Link to file https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0nxIjitvEABVVRHTWdJYzY5em8/view?usp=sharing I was trying to add a new add section it was outside a bracket it should not be, I’ve fixed the issue in the file but I’m stuck on how to undo the changes.

    Would you be able to download the theme, extract the one file that you edited and re-upload it again?

    as you can see on this link http://test.runningwild.co.ke/wp-admin/ even the wordpress backend is crashed but I’m asking the old main developer to send me the logins for cpanel so I can edit the file mentioned in the list.

    I was assuming there was a different ftp for the test site but it’s the same, as you can see here the folder in the error travel-lite doesn’t exists but I’ve been thinking about it the error was created when I was uploading the theme so possibly I’ll have to upload the theme manually without an issue.

    I’ve uploaded the whole theme to the folder to the path of the themes with the file customize.php removed of my edits that would cause this issue but the error persists I would assume it would notice the new file and work but it didnt and wordpress doesn’t have a way to restart apache. This is now becoming a head ache. Since this is purely a wordpress error shouldn’t it be more well documented and a fix exist for it?
