# Theme Editor Error…

 * No idea why, but I’m getting this problem…
 * When I go into the theme editor, and click on one of the files to edit it, it
   gives me an odd link like this:
 * [http://www.amandamarie.info/wp-admin/theme-editor.php?file=wp-content/themes/dark_maple/home.php&theme=Dark%E3%86%AA](http://www.amandamarie.info/wp-admin/theme-editor.php?file=wp-content/themes/dark_maple/home.php&theme=Dark%E3%86%AA)
 * Note the random(?) characters at the end… no idea why it’s doing this, but it’s
   keeping me from being able to edit the files from WP.
 * Any ideas how to fix this?
 * Only thing I can think of is that I changed Encoding for pages and feeds: to 
   UTF-7 from UTF-8…
 * Actually, I’m noticing that I can’t even change the UTF-7 back to UTF-8…
 * I can’t seem to change any of my options…
 * Huh…

 * Well, yes, but it’s doing that with all my themes.
 * I just re-updated my WP2 install, and I still have the same problem.
