 * I’ve read through the various parse error forum posts and I don’t see anything
   like what’s currently happening in my site.
 * When I go to the home page, [http://www.paws-and-effect.com](http://www.paws-and-effect.com),
   I get this message: Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/content/j/
   a/n/janea/html/wp-load.php on line 46
 * When I try to access the site through the admin panel I get this message: Parse
   error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/content/j/a/n/janea/html/wp-login.php
   on line 497
 * I wouldn’t mind tooling around in whatever parts of the code need to have the
   $ removed, but I don’t know what parts those are and I don’t want to completely
   bugger the site!
