Please check your hosting admin panel or contact hosting provider. * Thread Starter [kelkirpi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kelkirpi/) * (@kelkirpi) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-t_string-51/#post-4913324) * Ok, I’ll do it..

I changed the PHP version down to 5.3, also while trying to get my site up and running I was restricted by my host due to too many processes running. So now not sure whether I should try upgrading jigoshop again to 1.9.3.1? Thank you for your help. * [OptArt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optart/) * (@optart) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-t_string-51/#post-4913581) * yes if you have 5.3 you can try upgrading * [seannevo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/seannevo/) * (@seannevo) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-t_string-51/#post-4913587) * too late, my website was taken down by the host 🙁 * [OptArt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optart/) * (@optart) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-t_string-51/#post-4913588) * that sounds strange. if you’d look for alternative hosting – contact us via [support@jigoshop.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-t_string-51/support@jigoshop.com?output_format=md), we have some packages in preparation * [seannevo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/seannevo/) * (@seannevo) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-t_string-51/#post-4913589) * Thank you, I’ll be very interested to know more about your hosting packages. My host is adamant that I either install super cache, sign up to cloudflare, or get a dedicated server. My website has been down for a full day now and they won’t restore it, can’t even access the dashboard. Extremely frustrating. The website in question is [http://cheapoz.com.au/](http://cheapoz.com.au/) * [seannevo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/seannevo/) * (@seannevo) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-t_string-51/#post-4913601) * I have now been banned from two hosts. It seems like it might be an issue with the theme i’m currently using (maya shop) but I really can’t tell for sure. My question is, can someone point me in the right direction as to where I could find a good selection of Jigoshop compatible themes? Alternatively, is there anyone on here who would be able to take a look at my website and figure out why it is such resource hungry? (and get paid for it of course) Cheers. * ### Begin System Info ### * Multi-site: No * SITE_URL: [http://cheapoz.com.au](http://cheapoz.com.au) HOME_URL: [http://cheapoz.com.au](http://cheapoz.com.au) * Jigoshop Version: 1.9.3.1 WordPress Version: 3.9.1 * Platform: Windows Browser Name: Chrome Browser Version: 35.0.1916.114 User Agent String: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW 64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, l ike Gecko) Chrome/35.0.1916.114 Safari/537.36 * PHP Version: 5.3.28 MySQL Version: 5.5.36 Web Server Info: Apache mod_fcgid/ 2.3.10-dev * PHP Memory Limit: 256M PHP Post Max Size: 8MB PHP Upload Max File Size: 2MB * WP_DEBUG: Disabled * WP Table Prefix: Length: 3 Status: Acceptable * Show On Front: page Page On Front: 15 Page For Posts: 17 * Session: Enabled Session Name: PHPSESSID Cookie Path: / Save Path: /tmp Use Cookies: On Use Only Cookies: On * WordPress Memory Limit: 40MB WP_DEBUG: Off DISPLAY ERRORS: N/A FSOCKOPEN: Your server supports fsockopen. * ACTIVE PLUGINS: * Advanced Custom Fields: 4.3.8 Contact Form 7: 3.8.1 Easy Table: 1.4 eWAY AU Direct Gateway for Jigoshop: 1.0 Jigoshop: 1.9.3.1 Premium Shipping for Jigoshop: 1.0.1 Table Rate Shipping for Jigoshop: 2.0.6 WordPress SEO: 1.5.3.2 Zopim Widget: 1.2.9 * CURRENT THEME: * Maya Shop: 2.4.0 * ### End System Info ### Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 25 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-t_string-51/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-t_string-51/page/2/?output_format=md) The topic ‘Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/jigoshop_655549.svg) * [Jigoshop](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jigoshop/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jigoshop/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jigoshop/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jigoshop/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jigoshop/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jigoshop/reviews/) * 25 replies * 5 participants * Last reply from: [seannevo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/seannevo/) * Last activity: [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-t_string-51/page/2/#post-4913616) * Status: resolved
