Description

The error reads: Fatal error: Cannot redeclare get_avatar_url() (previously declared in /home/wstaging/subdomains/tax/public_html/wp-includes/link-template.php:3414) in /home/wstaging/subdomains/tax/public_html/wp-content/themes/zeyn/lib/custom_functions.php on line 623

This occurred when I updated to the new version of wordpress, 4.2

There was no issue before this. I can't access the wp-admin page so can't downgrade wordpress to see if that fixes it

Hi, this will be an issue with either the zeyn theme your using or something you have added yourself in custom_functions.php.

I suggest you contact the theme author for support or the WordPress support forums https://wordpress.org/support/

To add some quick context to the issue. WordPress 4.2 added a new core function of the same name as the custom one found in the theme.

That's why you should prefix your own functions and class.

Thanks tw2113, full details here -> #21195

WordPress adding a non-prefixed new function is not a defect? Shouldn't the this new function have been named wp_get_avatar_url?
