PHP Parse Error: syntax error, unexpected $end on wordpress
You might encounter this error
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\hemingway\functions.php on line 647
when installing new themes for WordPress. I did encounter this when i have
- Apache 2.0.63
- PHP 5.2.6
running on my server.
The error may caused by a missing curly bracket in PHP script coding. Beside, it may also caused by error in PHP coding in class definition, as in PHP, a class definition cannot be broke up and distributed into multiple files, or into multiple PHP blocks, unless the break is within a method declaration.
To solve it. Open PHP.ini and change the variable below
short_open_tag = Off
change to
short_open_tag = On
thank you very much on this one. I was always confused why hemingway doesn’t work in my local apache.
