 * I am using network solutions as a host. Creating a word press site thru them.
   Have been setting up my site on word press using the url they provided. Was ready
   to upload and launch my site. Well I changed the wordpress address url. I followed
   these instructions:
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL](http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL)
   
   Now I can not log in and the error:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘&’ in /data/23/2/128/72/2943235/user/3262192/
   htdocs/wordpress1/wp-includes/functions.php on line 1863
 * appears.
 * Please help. Also, any advice on how to get out of this hole and change my address
   from [http://036cf37.netsolhost.com/wordpress1/wp-login.php](http://036cf37.netsolhost.com/wordpress1/wp-login.php)
   to bancstartitle.com would be much appriciated.

 * Try editing your theme’s functions.php file again. Looks like you made an error
   when you added the new code.

 * I also unassigned the domain I pointed to. Backed up and restored everything 
   to the way it was pre error with no change. Still can not even get to login.

 * Re-upload a fresh copy of the theme’s folder to wp-content/themes using FTP of
   whatever file management application that your host provides.

 * Try switching to the default theme by renaming your current theme’s folder inside
   wp-content/themes and adding “-old” to the end of the folder name using [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients)
   or whatever file management application your host provides.
