 * Hi, the error encountered:
 *     ```
       PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '}' in /home/pomclic/public_html/wp-content/themes/enigma-parallax/footer.php on line 40
       ```
   
 * Turns out adding a space between the `<?php` and the `}` fixes it…

 * In addition to that, when i upgraded my website to PHP 7.3 general view on the
   homepage is completely changed (Very similar to mobile view but the content started
   from middle of the page and continued to the en of the right side of screen).
   So i turned back to previous PHP version. I think a small fix should be released
   about PHP 7.3
