A friend of mine decided to Join the Wordpress Revolution and purchase a Wordpress Theme. Overall, he was very happy with the theme.
However, he had a small problem when he first installed the theme, which turned out to no fault of the theme itself and very easy to fix. Upon changing to his shiny, new theme, he got the below error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function the_content_limit()
The fix was dead simple. All he had to do was install and activate the Limit Content plugin that comes with the Theme. That’s it. That’s the fix.
Sometimes the best solutions are the easiest. After activating the plugin, everything worked smoothly.
