# HELP! Broken web

 * [5 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/help-broken-web/)
 * If you go to [http://www.biologueando.com](http://www.biologueando.com) you’ll
   see that the design is broken (I only experience it in private navigation).
 * **I recieved a mail by WP with this error: **
 * An error of the type E_ERROR in line 1066 of file /home/customer/www/biologueando.
   com/public_html/wp-content/themes/oceanwp/functions.php. Error message: Cannot
   redeclare alter_author_link() (previously declared in /home/customer/www/biologueando.
   com/public_html/wp-content/themes/oceanwp-child-theme-master/functions.php:33)
   **
   What I did before this error:
 * 1. I installed OCEANWP Child to change the author link of the author box. Edited
   functions.php of the child theme with
 *     ```
       add_filter( 'author_link', 'alter_author_link', 10, 1 ); 	 	 
       function alter_author_link( $link ) {	 	 
           $link = 'https://my-link/';
           return $link;	 	  	 	 
       }
       ```
   
 * 2. It didn’t worked. I edited functions.php of OCEANWP with the same code, at
   the end of the file. It worked.
 * 3. I Uninstalled child theme and 21 wordpress default theme.
 * Today I saw THE HORROR. I also had a mail by wordpress telling me my web had 
   technical issues.
 * 1. I edited functions.php of OCEANWP to the original (I think: this is what i
   Have at the end of the file:
 *     ```
       // Init Freemius.
       		owp_fs();
       		// Signal that SDK was initiated.
       		do_action( 'owp_fs_loaded' );
       	}
       }
       #endregion
   
       new OCEANWP_Theme_Class(); 
       ```
   
 * 2. It didn’t worked, so I re-installed the child theme with the added code.
 * Still not working. I don’t know what I’ve broken but my website is awful right
   now.
 * What Can I do? Some help will be appreciated. Thanks

 * Hello,
 * Seems you also posted on our FB group, and the issue has been resolved after 
   removing modified changes to the parent theme.
 * Please let us know if everything is working fine now.

 * Yes, it was resolved after removing modified changes to the parent theme and 
   clearing cache from my hosting service.
