 * I’m getting the generic internal server error I’m sure most users are familiar
   with. I can’t even access my admin page to log-in anymore and the entire site
   is down (www.spultured.com). I was playing around in one of the facebook comments
   plugin .php files and all of a sudden everything is down after I literally only
   added a few sets of []. Any ideas on how to fix this? I’m no wordpress expert
   but am not a novice either.
    Thanks in advance

 * It’s possible that the server error is being caused by something besides WordPress,
   if that’s the case you probably want to get in contact with your hosting provider(
   or server admin, as the case may be).
 * Have you tried uploading a plain .txt file to your site’s main directory, then
   accessing it from a browser? If you can read it, it’s probably WordPress, but
   if you get a server error, it’s probably not.
 * Also, try deleting the plugin folder in question (the one you were editing). 
   Download a copy to your machine first, and if deleting it from the server doesn’t
   help, you can re-upload it.
