 * I recently installed an update and after doing so, got this message:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home3/trillium/public_html/
   wp-content/plugins/wp-views/inc/ct-editor/section-content.php on line 97
 * I am unable to access my site now and need help urgently.

 * I came to post this and after seeing your note I decided to look at the code 
   on line 97 and noticed it uses an anonymous function in there, which I assume
   has only been recently introduced in PHP.
 * Anyway, I hopped onto my hosting account and bumped up the PHP version from 5.4
   to 7.0, but you probably don’t need to go that high. After that it worked fine.
   I’m guessing that’s the problem you’re seeing as well.
