    Hi everyone,

    need urgent help, please! Just edited the function.php of my website to insert a “read more” button to the experts of my posts. Saving it worked fine, no issues, but 5mins later everything just crashed. Whether I’m trying to access my website now or even logging into wordpress, I get this error message.

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘”‘ in /home/chilli/domains/chillirentals.co.nz/public_html/wp-content/themes/Divi/functions.php on line 4803

    Can someone help me please? I tried going back in my browser to delete the last edition to the functions.php but I’m not even able to get back into wordpress!

    Any suggestions appreciated!

    Mara

    Thanks James. I’ve downloaded FileZilla and read through the WordPress Troubleshoot page on how to use it. Currently can’t log in but I think that’s because a mate of mine is registered as the admin… waiting for his reply and hopefully will be able to fix this…
