 * Please Help! I’m in a crisis!
 * I am getting the following error when I try to simply log into my admin
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<‘ in /home/content/47/11786347/html/wp-
   content/themes/Mystile/functions.php on line 78
 * The system isn’t allowing me to edit the functions.php file through the admin.
   How do I access this file and what do I need to do to resolve this issue??
