Unfortunately, no. But, you could ask the theme author to make their functions “pluggable”. Basically, they would wrap their functions in an if statement, like:

if( ! function_exists('some_theme_function') ) {
    function some_theme_function() {
        // function code
    }
}

That way, you could create a function some_theme_function in your child theme, overriding the parent’s function.

In the mean time, just comment out each parent function that you recreate in your child theme, and remember to re-comment them out each upgrade.

See my post for how to fix.

Please replace your paths listed with /home/content/XX/XXXXXXXX/..., the second numbers (8 digits) are unique to your hosting account. I don’t know if there’s a security risk or not, but better safe than sorry.

I’m not sure, but you could try uploading that file as well. But, since you were warned by your host that your site was infected, you should really follow those links that Esmi listed above.

Download a copy of WordPress to your computer and unzip it somewhere.

Log in to your GoDaddy hosting account. Click on the appropriate Hosting Account. On the ”’Hosting”’ tab, click ”’FTP File Manager”’ in the ”’Tools”’ section.

Navigate to [your_wordpress_install]/wp-includes/. Find functions.php (probably on page 3 in the upper-right area), right-click on it and rename to functions.old.php or whatever you want.

Now, click Upload file, Browse, and select functions.php from [your downloaded WordPress]/wp-includes/.

Hopefully you can now access your site. But, it sounds like you have to find any malware on your site and remove it. That’s beyond my abilities, so hopefully someone else will come along to help you with that part of your problem.

What changes/entries did you make when you ran Duplicator’s installer.php? If you’re not sure, try it again, and document what steps you took.
