Greetings,

My website is down and showing this error message:

wed address: http://www.juiceitdrinkit.com
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘:’ in /home4/katelier/public_html/juiceitdrinkit.com/wp-content/themes/x/header.php on line 142

I recently upgraded to wordpress 4.0 and also uploaded the new version of thd X theme. My host company says the problem is not on their end , but withing the code on the theme. I dont know how to fix this. I do this by myself. Im quite desperate at this time since my small business rely on the webpage for orders.

Can you please help me with this?

Hi Karen,

In this case, please always provide all needed information.

Would you mind providing us with login credentials so we can take a closer look? To do this, you can make a post with the following info:

– Link to your site
– WordPress Admin username / password
– FTP credentials

Don’t forget to select Set as private reply. This ensures your information is only visible to our staff.

Parse error is only possible by faulty coding. Given that X works on my setup and other user’s site,then it’s possible that you have custom coding at header.php that breaks your site.

Thanks.

Hi Karen,

Your header.php should be like this.

<?php

// =============================================================================
// HEADER.PHP
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// The site header. Variable output across different stacks.
//
// Content is output based on which Stack has been selected in the Customizer.
// To view and/or edit the markup of your Stack's index, first go to "views"
// inside the "framework" subdirectory. Once inside, find your Stack's folder
// and look for a file called "wp-header.php," where you'll be able to find the
// appropriate output.
// =============================================================================

?>

<?php x_get_view( x_get_stack(), 'wp', 'header' ); ?>

Your current header.php has this.

<?php

// =============================================================================
// HEADER.PHP
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// The site header. Variable output across different stacks.
//
// Content is output based on which Stack has been selected in the Customizer.
// To view and/or edit the markup of your Stack's index, first go to "views"
// inside the "framework" subdirectory. Once inside, find your Stack's folder
// and look for a file called "wp-header.php," where you'll be able to find the
// appropriate output.

There is a bunch of code that has to be added to akismet plugin, but added to your header.php

If you’re can’t remember this, please scan your site of probable virus/malware infection.

I deleted that extra code, but it may come back if it’s a virus/malware.

Cheers!
