    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function get_header() in wp-content/plugins/academa/templates/archive-publication.php:6
    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function get_header() in wp-content/plugins/academa/templates/single-publication.php:6
