    If anyone else finds themselves in this situation, bluehost makes it so you don’t need an FTP server. log into your bluehost account and go to your hosting tab and go to cpanel. from there, scroll to your file manager and open it up. that’s where all of the files are for your site. go to the public_html folder (or use the search) and find /public_html/wp-content/themes/“YOUR THEME”/functions.php and download that file. Open the file with notepad and you can edit it, which in my case I had to delete the line of code that i tried to add which crashed my site. Then you can reupload and overwrite the old file back into your public_html folder, and viola! everything should be back to normal!!!!

    i have used the domain bluehost.com and my username and password for it as well as my main domain and the username and password for that, to no avail.

    I don’t understand how to connect via FTP though, when i try using filezilla i get “critical error: could not connect to server” even though i am using the right username and password, maybe i am not using the right host? i thought i just have to type in the domain name of the website?
