# Theme changes breaks site

 * I was going through a list of themes to test them out on the new WP version and
   when I got to a theme called Danko it broke the site:
 * Fatal error: Cannot redeclare _verify_isactivate_widgets() (previously declared
   in /home/username/public_html/wprc/wp-content/themes/danko/functions.php:229)
   in /home/username/public_html/wprc/wp-content/themes/danko/admin/functions.php
   on line 585
 * Tried to go back and click anything else and I get the same error.
 * I have the plugins Wordfence and Antivirus activated. Wordfence doesn’t work 
   since it doesn’t recognize this WP version. Antivirus seems to work. I created
   an about page using the new feature- no images just text in the text box and 
   there is the sample page up. Otherwise bare bones.
 * Hope that helps someone 😉

 * please try to directly contact the distributors of ‘danko’ for support;
 * the theme is behind a membership login, and cannot be freely downloaded; it is
   therefore not supported by this forum.

 * Thanks! I’ve notified them of this. I did delete the theme from the wp site (
   manually via ftp) and site is still broken.. it did not resort back to twenty
   twelve.

 * The site is broken:
    I activated Danko, got the error listed above when it went
   to the activate page, couldn’t click on anything without that errror (when I 
   used the back arrow to return to admin section), closed it and went to ftp, removed
   danko and I get a blank white page now when I go to the site.

 * It’s a theme virus. Self-replicating PHP code, check my question and solution
