Hi,

It’s not a critical error, it’s a common issue which appears when you try to access the index.php file directly. WordPress uses permalinks and internal functions, you don’t have to access the template files directly. A solution for this is described here – https://ardamis.com/2011/06/02/fix-for-php-fatal-error-get_header-in-wordpress/

Thank you!
