 * Hello,
 * I have recently updates my theme to a new one. but now the plugin breaks the 
   website.
    When i look in the log i see: FastCGI sent in stderr: “PHP message:
   PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare ct_init() (previously declared in /var/www/
   server80/wp-content/plugins/cleantalk-spam-protect/cleantalk-public.php:8)

 * Hello, **Virusjuh**!
    Are you using last version of CleanTalk (5.3)? Do not disable/
   enable plugin, just delete it and reinstall again, it must helps. If not, maybe
   there is function ct_init is already declared in your new theme. So, please, 
   give me name and version of your theme, i’ll try to solve your problem.

    I don’t forget about you, but solution of your problem
   requires global code changes and careful testing, so it will take another few
   days. I’ll notify you, when work will finish.
