 * Hi,
 * I was using your great plugin when I screwed up by trying to add a bit of my 
   own code in my child theme functions.php file.
 * Since then, I get the “Parse error: syntax error…” page.
 * I thought I could resolve this by accessing my ftp and deleting your plugin from
   there, then reinstall it but I still can’t access my WP admin, and still get 
   the same error message.
 * How can I retrieve access and control of WP admin please??
 * Thanks in advance

 * Using FTP log in and delete the functions.php file from the child theme.
 * It will be in wp-content/themes/[child] not the plugin.
 * Then you can re-generate the configurator files with a fresh functions.php file.
