 * Hi there,
 * I accessed the shortcodes file in the editor section of my WordPress site. Although
   I didn’t make any changes to the file when I tried to view my dashboard I receive
   the error:
 * **Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘.’ in /home/zoomp/public_html/newsite/
   wp-content/themes/glisseo/functions/theme_shortcodes.php on line 12**
 * I am unable to access any section of my site and don’t know how to proceed. I
   tried re-uploading the wp-includes folder on my FTP but was unsuccessful. I’m
   new to this and have no idea how to proceed!
 * Many thanks in advance

 * You can ask your theme’s vendors for support regarding their theme.
