 * Hello all,
 * I’ve been having a tough time, and I know there are much more talented people
   on this forum than I am. If you could share your wisdom I will be thankful!
 * When activating or previewing the theme I keep getting
 * > Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /www/99k.org/d/j/i/djigtestpage/
   > htdocs/wp-content/themes/indiefest/foxhound/settings-page.php on line 1
 * I’ve tried multiple different uploaders to see if my uploader was putting all
   the files on the same line. I’ve tried deleting the space before and after the
   <? and ?>. I’m stumped and don’t know what to do.
 * Here is the code from the offending file.

 * I should mention this is a “premium” theme. And although I upload it to the themes
   folder of wordpress on my site, it still does not work.

 * Hi Kazzak,
 * As this is a commercial Theme, you should consult the support offerings of FoxhoundBandThemes,
   who developed this Theme.
