Hi Arnab88,
To edit that file you will need to use FTP or something like cPanel File Manager. It sounds like some code was added or removed from that file and a stray < tag was left behind. Were you editing anything before this error started?
Hope this helps!

Hi, Christi
Yes you are right I was trying to edit a file, but now I can’t access the site or backend and I tried using an ftp client, but it is not getting connected. I am getting the error,
Software caused connection abort
I am thinking of trying the restore function to one day back. Will it work?
Hi Arnab88,
There can be quite a few things that cause that error in an FTP client (anything from a firewall to an IP ban at the host server) so I won’t be able to help with that. Depending on what FTP client you are using, you may want to check their support documentation or search their forum if they have one.
In the meantime, your webhost should have some sort of file manager for your hosting account (e.g. File Manger in cPanel). If not, the restore function may be your only option.
Also, you should make a Child Theme if you want to change certain files for a theme.
Thanks Christi, it is up and running now.
Hi Arnab88,
That’s good news. Please mark this post as resolved.
Thanks!
Christi
