• When I’m activating a parent theme developed off of the 2010 theme, I get a 500 error. This isn’t happening when I try to activate child themes based off of the theme I’m attempting to activate. I thought it might be a problem w/ one of the themes, but when I researched online it said this is often due to either a problem with the .htaccess file, or not enough memory on the php.ini file.

    Here is the error message that is generated in the logs:

    Cannot redeclare missouristate2010_excerpt_length() (previously declared in D:\\Inetpub\\BlogsTest.MissouriState.edu\\wp-content\\themes\\MissouriState2010\\functions.php:200) in D:\\Inetpub\\BlogsTest.MissouriState.edu\\wp-content\\themes\\MissouriState2010\\functions.php on line 202, referer:https://blogstest.missouristate.edu/wp-admin/themes.php?activated=true

    Here is the content of the .htaccess file:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    
    #uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ index.php [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*wp-content/plugins.*
    RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-content/blogs.php?file=$2 [L]
    
    # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/wp-admin$
    RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1/ [R=301,L]
    
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule . - [L]

    <IfModule mod_security.c>
    <Files async-upload.php>

    Thank you for any help.
