I accessed my file management system and downloaded the file within my wp-content folder to my hard drive (not the content folder itself) that contained the error in syntax (in my case it was theme.js but you can tell which folder it is by looking at your error message, and removed the error. i then deleted it through my file mgmt system and uploaded it again by uploading the saved folder with the correct syntax. this allowed me to remove the error through my file mgmt system without having to delete the entire theme and install it again, which means my website was exactly as before and I did not need to re-edit anything nor use ezpz’s automated backup.

nevermind i figured it out through my host. thanks anyway!!

Hi I just figured it out, thanks!

background info: i tried to log in through my host site but it’s the same problem with only the error message showing up. i dont know how to delete the theme via my host site. there seems only to be the option to uninstall the wordpress application. again, i really need help and if anyone can guide me, that would be awesome ??

Hi I have the same problem, the error message is

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<‘ in /homepages/41/d386780102/htdocs/app386780115/wp-content/themes/mansion/includes/theme-js.php on line 94

and i cannot go back to change it nor log into my dahsboard. it happened after i accidentally edited my theme.

i am using 1and1 webhosting and have used ftp before to upload this current theme. i did a lot of CSS customization so im scared to delete the theme and upload it again. i have recently backed up my website using the ezpz plugin and the folder is on my dropbox and also on my hardrive. i wonder if i can restore my website using the backup even though i cannot log in? is there a way to do that?

if not, and i have to use ftp to upload the new theme, can someone please guide me step by step as i am quite worried of making another mistake at this point. thanks SO MUCH!
