    Hi guys,

    I am trying to learn to build my website from scratch. I installed “Astra” theme and activated it. Then it popped out “

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘)’ in /www/wwwroot/yizhongdie.com/wp-content/themes/astra/inc/core/class-astra-admin-settings.php on line 248

    There has been a critical error on this website. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions.

    Learn more about troubleshooting WordPress.”

    Now above message showed up when I go to “dashboard” and “appearance”. I cannot use WordPress at all.

    I don’t know about coding, that’s why I choose a theme to start. It makes me so confused and I do not know how to fix it. Anyone can give me some instruction?

    Really appreciate it if anyone can reply this post.

    Have same problem, it was up to PHP version on server which was 7.2.

    Increasing PHP to 7.4 (or more) solved problem
