Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by

  • When I attempt to log into my site (admin side), I am getting these errors:

    Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/45/9216945/html/wp-content/themes/TheProfessional/functions.php:1) in /home/content/45/9216945/html/wp-login.php on line 362

    Steps I have already taken:
    – downloaded the entire site via FTP
    – checked for any spaces inside the functions.php and pluggable.php and wp-login.php and found nothing.

    The site has been running for almost a year now with no issues. I would log in about once a month to check on things, make sure there are no spam comments, look around and log off. I updated one plugin about 4-5 months ago, but since then, I’ve been able to log in w/no problems. Until today – that’s when I get all these errors.

    Not sure what else do to here…

  • Sounds like the problem is with your theme’s functions.php.

    To get to the Dashboard, you’re going to have to disable that theme. If you remove all themes except Twenty Twelve by ftp, it will force your site to use Twenty Twelve and let you log in to the admin area. Then you can make whatever adjustments you need to from there. I would start with a clean installation of the theme, or a new theme altogether.

    If you need further support with the theme itself, you’ll need to contact its author, as I think it’s a commercial theme.

    You’ll need to contact the Elegant Themes as that appears to be a theme issue. You can try deactivating the theme and switching to a default theme, deactivating plugins and see if that helps.
