 * Thanks for the quick responses Brady.
 * I’m going to investigate this further, and I’ll let you know if I find anything
   awry.
 * Just to be clear, aside from this (potential) issue, this is an excellent plugin.

 * Reports have not specified, unfortunately, but it’s unlikely to involve quick
   or bulk edits.
 * I’m probably being dense here, but I cannot find the edit sidebar screen. Where
   would I find that?

 * admin-functions.php is inside the wp-admin directory. That’s not where you want
   to be. Go up a level, and you’ll see the wp-content directory. Inside that is
   themes, inside that is twentyeleven, and inside that is the correct functions.

 * You need to undo the changes you made to functions.php – which is in your **theme
   directory**. The error message indicates where to find it:
    `/home/content/77/
   10036877/html/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/functions.php`
 * So, use FTP to access your site and locate themes/twentyeleven/functions.php.
   This is where you made your initial changes that caused the issue. Remove them.

 * If you view the source of your site (when it eventually loads) you’ll see a comment
   at the bottom:
    `WP Super Cache is installed but broken. The constant WPCACHEHOME
   must be set in the file wp-config.php and point at the WP Super Cache plugin 
   directory.`
 * That said, something else is probably awry. I would turn off the caching plugin
   so as not to cloud the issue.
 * If your site is still slow, I would do the usual first debug steps: try a standard
   theme (twentysomething). If that makes no difference, disable all you plugins
   and reactivate one by one, checking everytime.
 * My guess right now would be that something is doing a massive DB query.

 * Your home page loading time is clocking in at 3-4 seconds for me. Not good but
   not that terrible. Looking at your GTmetrix report, there is no single point 
   of failure – just lots of smaller things, many of which could be remedied with
   W3TC.

 * Google doesn’t care what directory is used for caching. The plugin should be 
   using get_temp_dir() to establish the path to a viable temporary directory, rather
   than sys_get_temp_dir() (in google-api-php-client/src/config.php). sys_get_temp_dir
   is not reliable in shared environments.

 * Hi Paul,
 * It’s more a case of waiting for WordPress to be updated to work with the latest
   jQuery UI version, as the plugin just uses the UI library that’s bundled with
   WP. Until then, as far as custom theming goes, the plugin is in limbo I’m afraid.

 * Thanks for drawing this to my attention.
 * jQuery UI changed its CSS as of version 1.9. WordPress currently comes with jQuery
   1.8.20. So, unfortunately, the latest versions of the themes will not work with
   the latest version of WordPress.
 * If you wish, you can still download older versions of the themes, here:
    [http://blog.jqueryui.com/2012/04/jquery-ui-1-8-20/](http://blog.jqueryui.com/2012/04/jquery-ui-1-8-20/)
 * It looks like you should be safe with versions up to and including 1.8.24.
