 * After adding the Genesis Featured Content Widget, any time I try to access my
   website or dashboard, I get the following error:
 * Fatal error: Call to undefined function genesis_get_option() in /home/lindasca/
   public_html/wp-content/plugins/genesis-featured-content-widget/gs-featured-content-
   widget.php on line 86
 * The site is: lindascastillo.com
 * I would greatly appreciate any help with this as well as any pointers for avoiding
   this issue in the future.
 * Thanks!

 * This issue was resolved. A person from my web hosting support team placed the
   widget in a temporary file so that I could access my dashboard and delete the
   plugin.
