Hello,

Thank you for your question about the "Call to undefined function" error. This usually indicates that a piece of code in the function file is missing critical data. You'll want to make sure that you were installing a verified version of twenty-fourteen downloaded directly from WordPress, unless it was a "child theme" developed by a third party. In the latter case you will want to check with the developer. I also recommend checking our guide on common WordPress troubleshooting.

Best,
Christopher M.
