Fatal Error with Recent Comments widget

Orion7 · 06-20-2009, 11:57 PM

Hi Everybody,

I'm using WP version 2.6.3 for my new blog. Yesterday I added some widgets in sidebar 1-no problem. I added the following widgets in sidebar 2: search, Recent Comments and Archives, pressed "save changes" and I got this message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function mw_recent_comments() in /home/cpanel username/public_html/wp-content/themes/mackone.3.17.3/mackone/functions.php on line 664

I was thinking maybe of reloading the function.php file from my backup, but I don't know if I should do this--I don't want to screw things up worse than they are and I can't undo this "Fatal Error"

I'm also wondering if it's not someone who is trying to hack my site through the recent comments that I got for my post (5 comments).

The comments are normal, they come from different people (so it appears),
but the IP's are all the same! It seems pretty weird and fishy to me.

Please tell me what you think and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

This may have something to do with new wordpress version. Confirm that your recent comments widget is compatible with updated version.
