 * Hi all,
 * A while ago, I properly installed the WP-Print plugin. Everything was working.
   No problem. Had the print button on each page and printed beautifully.
 * All of a sudden, I’ve lost the print button. Don’t know where it went or how 
   to fix it.
 * Please help.
 * Thanks.

 * You probably overwrite your theme?
 * Check to see if print_link() is still in your theme, if not you have to add it
   in. See [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-print/installation/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-print/installation/)

 * I know. But, I don’t understand how to do the following: Open wp-content/themes/
   <YOUR THEME NAME>/index.php. You should place it in single.php, post.php, page.
   php, etc also if they exist.
 * Open wp-content where?
 * I don’t understand how to “place it in” single.php, post.php, page.php, etc.,
   if they exist.
 * Thanks,

 * I would suggest contacting your theme author to ask them where to put that code.
   The instructions are very generic because each theme does it differently. You
   need to be a little technical to put that in.

 * Thank you. I’m fairly technical, but still don’t know where to open wp-content.
 * Is that in the wordpress control panel?
