 * I am helping to run a site for our local chapter of the writing project. Today,
   suddenly, out of the blue, my plug-ins quit working. I got an error that said
   something about improper headers. I went to look at the files using my file browser
   on my server, and the plugins are still in the folder and the permissions are
   all correct.
 * I did a search for this problem, and it seems that many people have had a problem
   like this. I tried changing the theme back from SmallBiz to 2012. Still no plugins.
 * I don’t know what changed. I was worried about being hacked, but I did a quick
   scan using one of those free scan sites, and it said we were okay.
 * I’m not sure what else to try. I was reading about using Myphp to go in and fix
   the plugins… sounds like a long and complicated solution… I tried using myphp
   to shutoff trackbacks on another wordpress site, and it didn’t work.
 * Oh, and the weird thing is that the plugins still seem to be working. The site
   works anyway.
 * Help me if you can.

 * It was something about some missing header. I can’t get the error back to replicate
   what it said. Sorry. Thanks for checking!
