    I was trying to change the admin interface language and I added a php script to functions.php through backend’s editor. After I saved I can’t see both frontend and backend. I get server error.

    Is there any way to access functions.php through ftp? I need to remove the script.

    Sure but you’ll need to know the path to that file.

    If you have an unaltered version of that theme’s functions.php file then try these steps via FTP.

    1. Using FTP or whatever filemanagement tools your host has provided you with navigate to the wp-content/themes/your-theme-directory-here directory.
    2. Once there locate and upload the unaltered functions.php file. You want to overwrite that old one..
    3. After that try and re-login to your WordPress dashboard.

    Replace your-theme-directory-here with the actual directory. 😉
