    Hi,

    I tried to add some shortcode to my theme, i tried to edit in the Appearance > Editor PHP files, as I added the code my site disappeared and I now only get this message -Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<‘ in /home/pearl4463/public_html/wp-content/themes/author-pro/functions.php on line 1
    I cannot access wp-admin to fix the problem.
    I would appreciate any help that you can give me to fix this,

    Thanks in advance

    That’s a bit tragic. Making a mistake in the functions.php of your site will make it go into what is called the White Page of Death.

    Anyway, to fix your site, you may need to login to the cpanel / control panel of your host and access the file manager. You can edit the functions.php file from there. Just follow the file path indicated in the error and remove the code that you added.
