I placed the video code in the video field of the WordPress page. Apparently, in the theme I use, there are three types of formats for posts — standard, gallery, and video. There is a video field for pasting the video code. I assume that placing the code in the text field renders it differently. Good luck!

Oh, and how to hide the comments on the static front page?

Thanks so much!

Thank you so much! I think it improved it:

https://www.farhoumanddentistry.com/

Now, how to hide the Site title and instead show only the banner?

Currently, it is showing Farhoumand Dental in H1…

Thanks! That did the trick!

I tried to install WP 2.1 in a totally new installation on another host and got the same error:

https://strannik.net/wp-admin/install.php

Parse error: parse error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/strann2/public_html/wp-includes/post.php on line 828

Would anyone pay attention to this request for help???

I deleted all the files, deleted the database, everything. Tried installing 2.1 from scratch and got the same error. Any idea what is going on??

My wrong. The functions-post.php indeed has 1032 lines, yet I still get the same message over and over. Today I tried to upgrade to 2.0.7 with the same result:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/websagen/public_html/wordpress/wp-includes/functions-post.php on line 779

Resolved

I tried this over and over. I followed the steps and yet I still get the same error message:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/websagen/public_html/wordpress/wp-includes/functions-post.php on line 779

This file, functions-post.php doesn’t even have 779 lines…

I give up and will uninstall and go back to 2.0.5, since nobody here helped.

I tried the same again — no result.

Then I uninstalled WP and installed it from my webhost’s Fantastico automatically into 2.0.5. When I attempted to upgrade to 2.0.6 following the instructions, I got the same error message…

Then I removed that installation and did a manual installation of the 2.0.6 from scratch and got the same error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/websagen/public_html/wordpress/wp-includes/functions-post.php on line 779

This is the error mistake I always receive. What gives???

I even deleted all the files and tried to install rather than upgrade. Once I ran install.php I got asked for wp-config.php and after I installed it, I got the same message (now on https://www.lmmiller.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php):

Parse error: parse error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/lawre2/public_html/blog/wp-includes/functions-post.php on line 773

I really do need help from someone who can help me with this! Thanks in advance!

I followed the Delete and Upload steps of the upgrade instuctions and still am getting the same error…

I did… I am doing the whole delete and upload again. Let’s see how it goes this time.

Uploading the file did not do anything, still the same error message:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/lawre2/public_html/blog/wp-includes/functions-post.php on line 773

Help!

OK, sorry, I was confused about which index should I change — the one in wordpress/index.php (this is where I put require(‘../wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’);
or the one in /wp-content/themes/ShadedGrey…

Thanks, it all works now!
