Title: Parse Syntax Error and FileZilla? Last modified: September 1, 2016 --- # Parse Syntax Error and FileZilla? * Resolved [eshangk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eshangk/) * (@eshangk) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/) * Can anyone walk me through how to log into Filezilla? I have the host as my wordpress domain, the username works, but the password does not. I am completely new to this and I have no idea what I’m doing. I just know that I crashed my website all because I was coding CSS and added an extra “.” where it wasn’t supposed to be. * Please help!! I really don’t know what else to do!

What exactly should I ask him for? Im not sure if he will even know what I’m talking about. * [Hardeep Asrani](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hardeepasrani/) * (@hardeepasrani) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/2/#post-7672101) * You can ask if for FTP details. If he doesn’t understand then you can ask for Hosting provider details, as in where your site is hosted (ie GoDaddy or HostGator). * Thread Starter [eshangk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eshangk/) * (@eshangk) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/2/#post-7672102) * WordPress isn’t the host? * [Hardeep Asrani](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hardeepasrani/) * (@hardeepasrani) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/2/#post-7672104) * WordPress is the CMS. It is like a software which runs on computer. It provides you with the code, which you have to run on your hosting provider. 🙂 * Thread Starter [eshangk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eshangk/) * (@eshangk) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/2/#post-7672105) * Okay, please stand by!! I’ll ask right now and see what I can get. Thank you so so much Hardeep, one second! * [Hardeep Asrani](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hardeepasrani/) * (@hardeepasrani) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/2/#post-7672110) * All the best. 🙂 * Thread Starter [eshangk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eshangk/) * (@eshangk) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/2/#post-7672112) * He is taking a while to respond. * When I get the credentials, I login and navigate to /public_html/calhisportsbayarea. com/wp-content/themes/theme45390/includes/sidebar-init.php. What do I do from there? * [Hardeep Asrani](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hardeepasrani/) * (@hardeepasrani) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/2/#post-7672114) * Open the sidebar-init.php file from your FTP and then replace all the code with the code which you copied before making the changes. Save the file. It will work properly after that. 🙂 * Thread Starter [eshangk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eshangk/) * (@eshangk) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/2/#post-7672127) * okay! I hope this works. I will let you know.

I’m afraid he won’t understand what that is or tell me that we don’t have a host ha ha.. * [Hardeep Asrani](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hardeepasrani/) * (@hardeepasrani) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/2/#post-7672157) * You can ask where he bought the hosting from and contact them (most offer phone support) to know the details. I’m sure once you tell your hosting provider about it, they will understand it easily. 🙂 Viewing 15 replies - 16 through 30 (of 40 total) [←](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/?output_format=md) [1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/?output_format=md) 2 [3](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/3/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/3/?output_format=md) The topic ‘Parse Syntax Error and FileZilla?’ is closed to new replies. * In: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) * 40 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [eshangk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eshangk/) * Last activity: [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-syntax-error-and-filezilla/page/3/#post-7672494) * Status: resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
