It may well be a hack: this is the second time it has happened in three months. Always something with the includes folder. Seems I should check the site every day. If I find this kind of error again, maybe I should send you the line in question. * Thanks for the suggestion. * Clueless * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [syntax error, unexpected $end](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/syntax-error-unexpected-end-4/) * Thread Starter [Clueless_User](https://wordpress.org/support/users/clueless_user/) * (@clueless_user) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/syntax-error-unexpected-end-4/#post-5297375) * I hope you have a backup of your site. * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/mizbern/public_html/wp-includes/ l10n.php on line 885 * The key word is wp-includes: that’s the folder that has been affected. Use FTP to get on your site server, navigate to public html, and replace the include folder with your backup. If your message points to a different folder, replace that one. * It’s not worth monkeying with the file at the end of the list. Fix that, and another one magically breaks. I assume this is a WordPress bug, because it keeps happening to me. * Good luck, * Clueless * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [How to remove "powered by WordPress" from footer?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/stand-theme-how-to-remove-powered-by-wordpress-from-footer/) * Thread Starter [Clueless_User](https://wordpress.org/support/users/clueless_user/) * (@clueless_user) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/stand-theme-how-to-remove-powered-by-wordpress-from-footer/#post-4975734) * Thank you.

Once logged in, it shows a blank site, without the custom template I bought. The wordpress download seems to have set up an entirely new user/account. I did use the server’s softaculous pane to reload the app. How would an update to that software erase the website? * nb * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress site suddenly broken](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-site-suddenly-broken/) * Thread Starter [Clueless_User](https://wordpress.org/support/users/clueless_user/) * (@clueless_user) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-site-suddenly-broken/#post-4943981) * Now WordPress doesn’t even recognize me as user.

I reloaded the whole program, and Softaculous says the install was successful. That should fix everything, shouldn’t it? Brand new copies of all the files? But no, still getting the same error message. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress site suddenly broken](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-site-suddenly-broken/) * Thread Starter [Clueless_User](https://wordpress.org/support/users/clueless_user/) * (@clueless_user) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-site-suddenly-broken/#post-4943937) * Mark, thanks for the advice. Too bad I don’t have a backup. (I’ve only been computing for 15 years…) * nb Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total)
