 * **ERROR 1:**
    Can’t delete items. This is the error message Sorry, but an unknown
   error occured whilst trying to delete the selected website from the portfolio.
 * **ERROR 2:**
    The below error message happens when adding a new portfolio item:
 * WordPress database error: [Table ‘randolph.wp_WPPortfolio_websites_meta’ doesn’t
   exist]
    SELECT tagname, templatetag, tagvalue FROM wp_WPPortfolio_websites_meta
   WHERE (siteid = 21)
