What exactly did you do, before you got that error?

For you're questions, I'm not really sure how to change the search, probably somewhere in a portal.tpl file

As for the user block just scroll down and click "Edit this page"

I was in this section..
styles and templets( trying to see what all it has)..

and then at the end there was a option to FTP ..i beleive in (setting or default style section in styles and templets) ..so i only enetered teh name of site and to use that FTP feature( thinking it will let me edit the page to add the site description i want instead of ice phoenix site desription

) and as soon as i did that i got this error message and now nothing comes ..even my site doesnt open..it says this error....

Iam not even sure if i make any sense

Code: [Hide] [Select]

Ok, Go to your Includes folder and find "def_themes.php" file and delete it, then upload this file with the name "def_themes.php" and you should be set.

Yes, but theres a trial that you can use for 30 days, that'll work, and for future don't mess with files or anything unless you know what its doing.
