  Hi,
  We have a website ‘kencef.de’ and tried to change a few things in the functions.php, now the page doesn’t work at all and the only thing that is shown is the ‘Parse Error Syntax Error’. Also there is the ‘unexpected ‘/”, while other people have that issue solved because there was the line and file with the error, none of that was shown to us.

  Where and / how can we figure that out?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi there!

  Please check the code of the functions.php once again. Maybe, you are missing a “}” or a PHP tag “<?php or ?>” is missing somewhere. Or else, keep a backup of your latest file and upload the previous functions.php file.

  Here are some links for your reference:

  Let me know if that helps.

  Hey!
  I’m really thankful for your quick answer! And it actually worked out for us. The file was basically not closed at the end, so we put the “?>” and uploaded the functions.php again and the website is online again!

  Thank you very much!

  PS.: The references were really helpful too!
