by the sounds of it you did the work on your live site. If that is the case
I would advise in future that you setup a copy of your site and test and
code with that first. when everything is sorted and tested then and only
then transfer the site to the live site and of course test again.

This way down time is at a minimal and there will not be such a rush to fix
any problems.
