   also.
 * After that, I totally cannot go into the admin area, [http://soonchernning.soonjessie.com/wp-admin](http://soonchernning.soonjessie.com/wp-admin)
   and the errors are;
 * Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started
   at /home/metrosol/public_html/soonchernning/wp-config.php:47) in /home/metrosol/

 * I recently messed up my htaccess file and my host was able to restore from the
   previous day’s backup.
 * Maybe ask your host?

 * Do you have a copy of `wp-config.php` on your own computer? If so, open it with
   a text editor to see if it has the correct info and then upload it to your website.

   get the errors as;

 * Look for and delete any empty spaces or additional blank lines after the very
   last `?>` in your `wp-config.php` file.
 * If this does not work, try uploading the whole wp-config.php file from your computer
   to replace the one on the website.

 * You still have bad extra spaces in one of your WordPress files, probably wp-config.
   php. Your text editor may be adding them. Here are some [instructions on fixing it](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_do_I_solve_the_Headers_already_sent_warning_problem.3F).
