 * Hi,
 * I all of a sudden am getting an error message. I deleted the plugin reinstalled.
   I created a new form with pretty much nothing on it to start from 0 and work 
   my way back up to the form i first created but nothing is working.
    If i publish
   the page it shows only white but in preview mood i get this error:
 * Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string
   in /home/content/p3pnexwpnas08_data03/45/2721945/html/wp-content/themes/adot/
   inc/templates/heading-top.php on line 158
 * It has been working until today, when I was going to update the copy for each
   button.
    Help please, Thanks!

 * That error originates with your theme. Try switching themes to see if the problem
   goes away. If it does, then you know there’s some troubleshooting to be done 
   with the theme.
 * A couple other suggestions:
    1) Try going to “Settings > Permalinks” and just
   save them again. 2) Go to “Donations > Settings” and in the “Display Options”
   tab make sure that “Disable Single Form” is NOT checked.
 * Let me know how it goes.

 * Hi! Yes it works when i switched the theme. (that is a great problem solving 
   trick by the way, thanks!)
    However it worked earlier with this theme and i have
   not updated the theme nor is there a new update of it… It was fixed when i switch
   back and forth between another theme though BUT wonder if you have any tricks
   up your sleeve if it breaks again as I would really like to use this plugin.

 * Is it a free theme? Do you have a link to the theme I can see?

 * Hi Karin,
 * Thanks for emailing us. I dug into your site and this is definitely a problem
   with your theme. A couple very specific problems specifically:
 * *
    1. You are using an outdated version of the theme. Your version is 1.1, but their
       latest according to the product page is 1.4 and was update just in August ([http://themeforest.net/item/ecommerce-wordpress-theme-adot/11733602](http://themeforest.net/item/ecommerce-wordpress-theme-adot/11733602))
    2. The old version is using deprecated functions that WordPress 4.3 no longer supports.
       It’s possible they’ve addressed this in their updated version, but their changelog
       doesn’t spell that out directly so I can’t confirm that.
 * So, update the theme and hopefully all will be well.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Karin,
 * I just emailed you an update. The theme still is using old PHP Constructors and
   will still continue to give you trouble. But I sent you some info which should
   get you up and running for now.
 * Thanks!
