 * Hi,
 * I was recently installing a new update for the website and the template, and 
   something has gone wrong, the installation did not complete. Now when I access
   the blog.chicnaturel.com (my blog address), all I get is this message:
 * ” Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_get_theme() in /homepages/45/d386029375/
   htdocs/blog/wordpress/wp-content/themes/pink-touch-2/functions.php on line 47″
 * And same comes up when i access the admin panel. So I cannot reverse the update,
   or restore it.
 * Can you please advise if there is anything I can do to fix this?
 * Thanks in advance,
 * Yuliya.

 * What version of WordPress are you running?

 * Hi,
 * Unfortunately, I can not tell right now, since I can’t access the admin panel,
   but it is not with the latest version.

 * Then you need to check what version of WordPress is needed for any themes that
   you download. Or better still, upgrade WordPress. You have tried to use a theme
   that is not compatible with your older copy of WordPress.
 * Try switching to your default theme by deleting wp-content/themes/pink-touch-
   2 using [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients) or whatever file management
   application your host provides.

 * Thanks so much!
 * I just deleted it, and now I can get into the admin panel to update.
 * Thanks again,
 * Yuliya.
