# function not exist

 * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/function-not-exist/)
 * upgraded to 4.7
    then I upgraded the theme (wipi) to latest, got this error (
   site is down)
 * Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_bloginfo() in /home4/amsalem/public_html/
   eyalonline.com/wp-includes/class-wp-locale.php on line 233
 * I set as remark the following lines in class-wp-locale.php
    //if ( ‘rtl’ === 
   $this->text_direction && strpos( get_bloginfo( ‘version’ ), ‘-src’ ) ) { // $
   this->text_direction = ‘ltr’; // add_action( ‘all_admin_notices’, array( $this,‘
   rtl_src_admin_notice’ ) ); //}
 * and the site went back up
    I guess this is not a very good solution, does anyone
   know why I don’t have this function get_bloginfo() and what should I do ?
 * thanks,
    Eyal.

 * DO NOT MODIFY CORE FILES.
 * It’s likely that the update didn’t quite replace all files. Go to wordpress.org
   and download a fresh copy. Unzip locally and upload all files and directories
   via FTP.

 * I’ve been encountering the same issue with 3 websites after upgrading to 4.7.2
   
   It’s not clear what is really causing this as we have a number of websites configured
   similarly, but only 3 of the websites are affected.
 * Eyal, did you have any luck in fixing this?
 * I tried replacing the WP files, but that hasn’t helped….

 * **Found a solution:**
    1. Comment out the lines just like Meshulam did so you
   can get access back to the admin panel. 2. Go to: Dashboard -> Updates 3. Re-
   install Wordpess (click “Re-install Now”)

 * sometimes it look like invalid DB info problem . so edit the wp-config.php file
   and make sure from the mysql database info and password and then try again.
