A few new errors popped up when I try to login to my dashboard: * > Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cookie– > headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/26/8461426/html/wp- > content/themes/morning-coffee/functions.php:1) in /home/content/26/8461426/ > html/wp-content/plugins/form/form.php on line 330 > Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache > limiter – headers already sent (output started at /home/content/26/8461426/ > html/wp-content/themes/morning-coffee/functions.php:1) in /home/content/26/ > 8461426/html/wp-content/plugins/form/form.php on line 330 > Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output > started at /home/content/26/8461426/html/wp-content/themes/morning-coffee/functions. > php:1) in /home/content/26/8461426/html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 876 > 116b137d-d903-4db0-ae1a-9b54733202c1 > Y2:116b137d-d903-4db0-ae1a-9b54733202c1 * Can someone please help me out?

As before, it clears up the initial warning. * Then, I also tried disabling the W3 Total Cache plugin. It didn’t solve the problem. * I reactivated W3 Total Cache, went to its setting screen and got another warning at the top. * /home/content/04/6735004/html/wp-content is write-able. When finished installing the plugin, change the permissions back to the default: chmod 755 /home/content/ 04/6735004/html/wp-content. * I’ve noted in my case the number, 6735004 is in every warning. I’ve sent in a second message to Go Daddy. * [Robzal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robzal/) * (@robzal) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-session_start-cannot-send-cache-limiter/#post-3411434) * Okay, I have found a solution to my problem. * I went to the iThemes Flexx theme forum and a week ago someone had a similar problem. * One solution is to reinstall the entire theme. * What I and the other person were able to do was, only upload the **functions. php** file and overwrite the old one. Fixed everything. * I hope this will help you nyochung. * (an interesting experience trying to remember how to upload stuff to Go Daddy.) * Thread Starter [nyochung](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nyochung/) * (@nyochung) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-session_start-cannot-send-cache-limiter/#post-3411452) * Thank you so much for your help Robzal, however, I cannot even login to my dashboard to access my plugins. * See if you visit this: [http://kingkorean.com/wp-admin/](http://kingkorean.com/wp-admin/) the page only shows the error messages and nothing else. I am at a complete stump right now. * [Robzal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robzal/) * (@robzal) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-session_start-cannot-send-cache-limiter/#post-3411456) * Hello nyochung, * All my files are on the Go Daddy servers. I’m presuming yours are as well? * 1. See what Go Daddy tells you. There is a way to disable plugins when you can’t access your admin. * 2. Log into your Go Daddy account, go to the files section, and find where the current functions.php is located. * Upload the latest version of functions.php for your theme and overwrite the existing file. Then see how or if your site responds. * I’m making a wild guess this will help. And there’s not much to lose really. * Thread Starter [nyochung](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nyochung/) * (@nyochung) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-session_start-cannot-send-cache-limiter/#post-3411465) * Hi Robzal, * I called Go Daddy support and they said that my theme was corrupted or had been hacked so they changed it back to the basic theme and everything is working fine now. * Really appreciate your help!
