 * So I was trying to tweak the functions.php and updated the file but when the 
   page reloaded I got:
 *  Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘function’ (T_FUNCTION), expecting ‘)’
   in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\pixova-lite\functions.php on line
   122
 * So then I deleted the changes I made to put everything back to normal but it 
   still says the error is there.
 * I compared my functions.php line 122 to the one I found online and they are the
   same so I don’t understand why the whole site crashed. If I log out right now
   I will lose everything.
 * I have no idea what to do.

 * Hi NewebieLearn,
 * I’m afraid this is a bit out of the scope of his support forum. Since you were
   trying to modify the functions.php file on your own and it’s not a problem caused
   by our theme upon initial installation.
 * P.S: Look at line 122, it looks like you’re missing a closing parenthesis.
