Fatal error:call to undefined function wp_get_current_user(); in line 920

You probably might have got the above error and hence are here.Ok lets see what to do now.

I uploaded a plugin called ‘wavatar’ and activated it from  my wp-admin.When I wanted to see the options of this plugin I clicked on the settings option.The above error started to show.

I clicked the back button in my browser and it was fine and returned to the plugins page.But the same error was appearing again and again when I tried to move away from that page.There was no option for me but to close the browser and open it again.I cleared all the cookies and tried to login to my site, allas!!  same error again.

Then the wordpress.org basics struck my mind.When ever you upload any plugin be sure to backup your database ,says wordpress team which I followed everytime and so I was prepared for anything.Another basic from wordpress.org is that whenever any plugin malfunctions you either rename it or completely delete it using your FTP and automatically the plugin will be de-activated.

I completely deleted the ‘wavatar’ plugin using Fire Zilla and tried to login again.

At last it was a success.So the bottomline from this is,when using wordpress do follow their basics.

Do mention your thoughts when you first saw that error using comments.I love to hear them.
