Footer links causing errors

  • I have been playing with the code to my wordpress theme, and at the bottom there are links with who designed the template, software (c) www.ads-software.com and a link to my site. I took out the link to my site because the size of the link was huge and just didn’t fit with the flow of the site. I also centered the other links. That’s it.

    Now when I go to view my page, or even try to make new edits, I get the following error: “This theme is released under creative commons licence, all links in the footer should remain intact”.

    The links are all still in tact. I even went to the raw PHP file (which I have stored here on my pc) and tried to cut and paste the original code back in, so it looks exactly as it did before I touched anything. still, I get the same “This theme is released under creative commons licence, all links in the footer should remain intact” error.

    If the code is back to the way it was… why am I still receiving this error?

  • because crappy theme authors are paranoid you might remove their google juice

    look in the theme’s functions.php file for eval– or obfuscated code
    copy and paste that code at pastebin.com and come back here with the link

    edit – nver mind James got it

    In the mean time, to restore your blog, you’ll have to access your server via FTP or SFTP, navigate to /wp-content/themes/ and rename everything except the /twentyten/ directory. This will force the Twenty Ten theme to activate.

    Hi James

    You have forgot to add to reinstall the theme ?? otherwise if you rename the template directory files it will give an empty website.

    Hope this one help!
