Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'the_post_thumbnail' (T_STRING)

  • Please bear with me. I am a complete NOOB when it comes to wordpress. I have a managed wordpress account.

    I was fooling around in the functions.php of my wp theme, and I must have cut and paste wrong coding into it and ended up with a blank white screen. I disabled the plug-ins in phpmyadmin and now have this when I try to log into my wp-admin dashboard:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘the_post_thumbnail’ (T_STRING) in /home/content/p3pnexwpnas09_data03/25/2509625/html/wp-content/themes/Caravan/functions.php on line 634

    So I know I have to delete the code I entered, but I do not know how to do this in phpmyadmin. I know I have to look for functions.php folder. I do not see this anywhere. I see something like these:
    wp_f3v3xxhmwc_commentmeta
    wp_f3v3xxhmwc_comments
    wp_f3v3xxhmwc_links
    wp_f3v3xxhmwc_options

    I am pretty sure what I am looking for is in the options folder, but I do not know what to do from here. When I search it, I don’t see anything that says function.php or themes.php and I’m not sure where I can pull up the file so that I can manually delete the incorrect coding.

    Any help is appreciated. Thanks for your patience.

  • I’d suggest downloading a new copy of your theme to your local computer and then using FTP or Cpanel, replacing the functions.php file here:

    wp-content
    themes
       Caravan
           functions.php

    Theme files aren’t in your database.
