In reply to: Mystile "Leave a Comment" woes..Sorry, I can’t figure that one out either, I can get rid of all the meta tags but not just the “leave a comment” even though that was all I selected using firebug, even tried using chrome’s inspector, with that I got an ELEMENT selector to work, but what element?

In reply to: Fatal ErrorThere is probably a problem with that code snippet, go to the woocommerce forum for help on that. But yes, if you need to change the name to get the site back up, you can do it in FTP.
Here are a couple of excellent programs I use for FTP and EDITING you may want to check them out.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Fatal ErrorIF ever your add php code and the site goes down, you can use ftp to rename the functions.php file in your child theme to functions.bak and your site will go back up. THen you can fix the code. Remember that php code doesn’t like mistakes and will make your site go down as you have figured out. CSS coding in your style.css file isn’t so finicky, if you make a mistake there the site wont go down, the customization just wont work.
Make backups of your php and css files as you go, then you have a good file to work from.
