Glad you found the solution. Do feel free to post it here – or link to a Pastebin – to help others in the future who may want to do the same thing.
I have to admnit that it was my fault as an “ignorant” newbie coder. (I am no coder and do not know the basic basic.)
The files namely functions.php and index.php etc.. MUST be edited with notepad++.
I have done such edit of code and pasting many times right but here I missed the ball. Use notepad++ otherwise it does not work.
Ah, glad it was something simple! Yes, all code should only ever be edited or generated with a plain-text editor, as you’ve discovered. Rich-text apps like Word are no good for code. 🙂
Code editors like TextWrangler or Sublime (just to name a few) are even better than Notepad, because you get syntax highlighting, which allows you to see any mistakes in your code more easily. They have a lot of other benefits as well, like multi-file search, which is super handy you’re trying to find out which file contains a specific piece of code.
Happy coding!
Thanks for the extra light. It is just something I am aware of and did not run into but this time I learned the hard way.
I am going to try this highlighting technics seems like right.
By the way I have another issue on another thread. It deals with P2 revealing hidden username with the @function. Could you help in this regard ?
