 * Greetings Everyone,
 * Just when I added a graphic to this post ([http://ccacdst.org/debutante/the-journey-begins/](http://ccacdst.org/debutante/the-journey-begins/)),
   the warning message below appeared across the top of the blog site:
 * Warning: include() [function.include]: Filename cannot be empty in /home/content/
   49/9736449/html/debutante/wp-content/plugins/yendif-player/includes/functions.
   php on line 2
 * Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening ” for inclusion (include_path
   =’.:/usr/local/php5_3/lib/php’) in /home/content/49/9736449/html/debutante/wp-
   content/plugins/yendif-player/includes/functions.php on line 2
 * —–
 * I am not sure why this warning popped up when I wasn’t even working with the 
   Yendif player that has been installed on the site for a couple of years now.
 * But can someone help me understand where the problem is exactly and how to fix
   it? Thanks in advance for your time and consideration with this issue!
 * Regards,
    Liv

 * It’s hard to tell exactly what is conflicting to make that happen, even with 
   it referencing the Yendif plugin.
 * Try deactivating all plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one
   individually until you find the cause.
 * If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the Twenty Sixteen theme
   to rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

 * Mr. Huff,
 * Thank you so much for the assistance and advice!!
 * After posting here, I found I could no longer access the dashboard of the blog.
   So deactivating and reactivating all the plugins individually as you suggested
   just wasn’t going to work for me at that point. So I did a quick backup of the
   database. Via my ftp softwware, I deleted the Yendif plugin and uploaded a new
   version of it and I got lucky . . . that did the trick!
 * Again, THANK YOU!
 * Regards,
    Liv
