When upgrading the theme Catch Box from 4.3.3 to 4.8.2 on my WordPress 4.4.17 instance, when I visit my site I’m presented with the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_theme_file_uri() in /home/rsco3393/public_html/wp-content/themes/catch-box/functions.php on line 743

I plan to update my WordPress, but thought you should know that this happens. Please let me know if you plan to fix this.

@ovidiub13: This should be because you are using a very old version of WordPress as the get_theme_file_uri() function was introduced in WordPress 4.7.0 and you seem to be using 4.4.17. Please update WordPress to the latest version and let me know if the issue persists.

Kind Regards,

I’ve updated WordPress, and the new theme version works just fine now. Thank you.

How do I close this thread? Or at least mark it as solved?
