    Hi. I have just downloaded the Blanco theme, but when I click to activate it I get a http error 500. I have contacted my host provider and they confirmed it is a problem with the theme. Please can you let know know what I need to do to fix this problem.
    Thank you.

    Hello,

    The problem is caused by “really-simple-captcha” plugin you are using. There was the error message “Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class ReallySimpleCaptcha …” as blanco theme includes the mentioned plugin. So I renamed the “wp-content/plugins/really-simple-captcha” folder to “really-simple-captcha_deactivated” to deactivate it and now you can log in to WP Dashboard. Please check.

    Best regards,
    Jack Richardson.
