 * Hi there, i updated to the newest version from your theme. In the index.php you
   changed the last 3 lines from the code. Now there are only 1 open php code and
   no more a closing one?! For better understanding:
    <?php exist, but no more ?
   > Is there a reason or was it forgotten because open php files can be a problem
   🙂

 * Hello [@felln](https://wordpress.org/support/users/felln/),
 * Thanks for using our theme.
 * While updating the theme we just removed the unnecessary closing PHP tag. It 
   shouldn’t be any problem. Even WordPress core does not use PHP closing tag.
 * Best Reagards,
