Hi! I’m the developer for Whimsy, and I’m so sorry this update went so terribly!
Could you open up /whimsy-framework/inc/hooks.php and search for:
global $whimsy;
and directly below that add this line:
$whimsy = new stdClass();
If this doesn’t resolve the issues I’ll need to know the version of PHP that hostgator is running so that I can troubleshoot further. Again, my apologies for bumpy update. 🙁
