Parse error in class-simplepie.php

    Hi! I recently moved my WordPress from a friend’s server to GoDaddy. I’ve followed the instructions and everything worked (except I had to change an entry in the wp_options tables as to the absolute path to the wp-content/upload folder). Since I don’t know the complete path, I replaced it with the relative path (wp-content/upload) and it started working.

    However, when I access the dashboard, I get this error in several dashboard widgets:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/content/53/4882353/html/wp-includes/class-simplepie.php on line 3790

    I’m not sure if this was caused because I changed the upload_path string but otherwise I could not access the dashboard. How do I fix this? Thanks in advance!

    I looked into this error and it seems it could be because of short open tags disabled. However, I included “short_open_tag = on” in php.ini but the problem is still there.

    The problem seems to affect the widgets that connect to wordpress to get lastest news and plugins. The website works fine otherwise.

    reupload the file /wp-includes/class-simplepie.php, see if that helps. make sure youre using a real ftp client and not dreamweaver or some psuedo-do everything pos.

    It worked, thanks a lot! I’m not sure what had happened, in the other blog it was working fine.

    Thanks again! 😀

    Thank you, that worked with me as well. Same problem in WP 2.8.5 but it went away after re-uploading class-simplepie.php.
