I need WordPress help! HELP!

HELP! I updated a plugin on one of my blogs today. Now, when I try to go to the site, without being an admin, I get this:

"Fatal error: Call to undefined function: filter_var() in /home/content/c/o/y/coyotex21/html/TheInterviewSeries/wp-content/plugins/affiliate-links-manager/stubs.php on line 6"

I don't know what to do. Any ideas?

The site, which doesn't work, is www.TheInterviewSeries.com

So now, when someone goes to that site, they see that error.

I cannot even log in as an admin!

I will erase the link if I need to, but you may want to see what I'm talking about so you can maybe help me out.

HELP!

Thanks.

    Can you log in through your FTP program and just delete that plugin that is causing the problem? (The affiliate links manager plugin). I had that problem a couple weeks ago with a plugin and couldn't get to the admin panel for the site - so I just went in through FTP and deleted the plugin that was giving the error, then everything worked fine.

      Follow Marie's advice. Delete the "affiliate-links-manager" directory via ftp...and have a chat with the developer.

    You should always try and have a second test setup of your important blogs so you can try updating plugins on those before you do it on the real blog. Can save you a lot of heartache. Backups are obviously very important as well. Worst case you can just roll your blog back to how it was yesterday.
