  I completely lost all access to my site as wp-admin and the site is completely down after I saved a parse error: syntax error when working on a child theme for my site.

  Now all that shows up is:
  ‘Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<‘, expecting ‘)’ in /home3/sarahb/public_html/wp-content/themes/no-nonsense-child/functions.php on line 30′

  What can I do to regain access?

  Thank you so much for your help!

  Hello,
  Unfortunately, this isn’t the right WordPress forum to help with that problem. You have a self-hosted site using the WordPress.org software, but this forum is for blogs hosted here on WordPress.com. The two versions are different and have separate forums. Please post your question at the WordPress.org forum: https://wordpress.org/support/

  If you don’t have a username at that forum, you’ll need to register before posting. For more information about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, visit: http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
