Parse error – cannot access site

    Like others, I cannot access my site (http://jaybernhardt.com).

    The error I get is:
    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/content/d/r/j/drjaybird/html/wp-content/themes/intrepidity/functions.php on line 229

    I’ve looked at the functions.php file (which I did NOT change) and don’t know what I need to do to fix it. Advice/revised code would be deeply appreciated! Thanks.

    There is an issue in your current theme. Try switching to the default theme by renaming:

    wp-content/themes/intrepidity

    to:

    wp-content/themes/intrepidity-old

    using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides.

    Thanks esmi. I tried your suggestion and the result is that nothing loads when accessing the site because the site is not defaulting to the “default” design/theme. Any other suggestions?

    I also tried renaming the default design folder the name of the one that doesn’t work but that also produced a parse error.

    I put the corrupted PHP file here: http://jaybernhardt.com/functions_php_file.txt

    The original error was this:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/content/d/r/j/drjaybird/html/wp-content/themes/intrepidity/functions.php on line 229

    Any advice on what to change/fix?

    Sorry – no. Try re-uploading a fresh copy of the theme.

    I fixed it. I swapped out the functions.php file in the theme folder for a new one I grabbed from the download zip here of the theme: http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/intrepidity

    Seems to be working now. I think I’ll change themes though to something that has been updated more recently.
