# Parse Error in functions.php

 * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-in-functionsphp-2/)
 * I just added some code (as directed by a plugin) and I got a parse error.
 * So I deleted the code but I still get the error and cannot do anything now.
 * The error is:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<‘ in /home4/nft/public_html/juicerjudge.
   com/wp-content/themes/ifeature/functions.php on line 374
 * There are only 372 lines in functions.php and I have copied and pasted an original
   functions.php over it, but it still says exactly the same thing.
 * Can anyone help me please?? The only issue I see is that there are 24 <? but 
   only 23 ?> but I don’t know enough about php to sort it plus the original file
   is exactly the same and that worked before I edited it!
 * This is the whole code copied below:
 *     ```

 * There’s a blank line at the end of the file. See if removing that clears your
   problem. Alternatively, although not strictly required, try adding the closing`?

 * Thank you – I tried both of those and still got the same error.
 * I have just this minute overwritten functions.php on the server (instead of copying
   and pasting within the dashboard) and it’s ok now – until I try adding the code
   again!.
 * Strange.

 * Is that why there is a discrepancy in the <? vs the ?> ?
 * Because the final closing one is not needed?

 * I am meant to add this code to the functions.php. I had just added it right at
   the end. Is that ok in theory?
 * ‘<?php
    function my_connection_types() { p2p_register_connection_type( array(‘

   parse error….?

 * I was using the editor within WP. Seems to work better when I do it in the code
   editor via cpanel.
