 * OK. This issue is closed as I was able to restore my functions.php file in my
   wp-includes folder through GoDaddy. Holy Crap! Thank you GoDaddy

 * I have custom date fields from Infusionsoft displayed on my wordpress page through
   InfusionWP. My problem is that the dates appear YYYYMMDDTHH:MM:SS and I want 
   them to appear as MM/DD/YY. How can I format this?

 * [@saucysalmon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/saucysalmon/), start your 
   own topic. Your question is not even remotely related to this thread.

 * Sorry. I’m not even sure why I posted it here as I had started my own topic previously.
