You need to edit the file through your host’s CPanel-feature. You can access this by logging in to your hosting service. There, navigate and edit the file at wp-content->themes->*Name of your theme*->functions.php and remove the line you added.

thanks
however when i accessed it and erased what i added it still doesn’t work. so i went back i saw that somehow it was still there. so itried again to erase it and saved it and for some reason it comes right back. how do i permanently erase it. by the way i edited it using notepad. perhaps i need to use a different program?
thanks
Try downloading a new copy of your theme and replacing that entire file with a new copy.
Next time, be sure to use a child theme to make changes to your theme –

just for others who come across this problem.
we use godaddy as a host. so instead of opening the file with a specific program , i did right click on the file and it gave an option to edit. i edited it over there and it worked
