Unfortunately, I am completely new to this{ and feeling really dumb}….I’m not sure how to edit the file on the server. Details for dummies? * [paulwpxp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/paulwp/) * (@paulwp) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/forever-theme-update/#post-6276309) * Since you’ve never edited file online before, it’s better to not do it to the live site. Try asking your web host support, just ask them to help delete those 3 lines. * I suppose the warning messages only happens in the admin dashboard and not on the front. So we can just wait for the next update that have this fixed. * Thread Starter [cblackenburg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cblackenburg/) * (@cblackenburg) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/forever-theme-update/#post-6276310) * Yes, the error only appears to show up in the admin dashboard, the front of the website looks fine.
