How to fix Thesis Theme Custom File Editor use_codepress() fatal error?


If you are using Thesis Theme 1.7 and recently upgraded to WordPress 3.0, you must be facing an error caused by use_codepress() function while you are trying to working in Custom File Editor.

Can you please explain what is happening?

When you are using Thesis Theme’s built-in code editor, Custom File Editor, it uses a WordPress function called use_codepress(). Actually this function highlights the code syntax in the browser. But the use_codepress() function is now deprecated in WordPress 3.0. So the error appears.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: use_codepress() in /[YOUR DIRECTORY NAME]/wp-content/themes/thesis_17/lib/admin/admin.php on line 42

OK… Tell me how I can fix Thesis Theme use_codepress() problem

  • Start your FTP program and log in to your hosting account. Personally I use FileZilla, it’s free to download and simple to use.
  • Browse to /wp-content/themes/thesis_17/lib/admin/ folder.
  • Download admin.php to your desktop.
  • Open the file in a text editor like Notepad.
  • Go to line 42 where the following code appears
    1
    
    <?php if (use_codepress(
    )
    ) add_action(
    'admin_print_footer_scripts'
    , 'codepress_footer_js'
    )
    ; ?>
    
  • Comment out that line by placing two forward slashes just before it.
    1
    
    <?php // if (use_codepress()) add_action('admin_print_footer_scripts', 'codepress_footer_js'); ?>
    
  • Save the file, Upload and replace admin.php

Hope this will fix all the use_codepress errors, but you will not be able to use the syntax highlighter in your Custom File Editor anymore. Please keep a backup of admin.php before editing in case something goes wrong.
