 * I can’t access my site, [http://www.rokhiphop.com](http://www.rokhiphop.com)
 * If you try to visit my site, a page that says
 * “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/hosting_users/seonghoon52/
   www/wp-content/themes/hiphop/functions.php on line 524”
 * appears.
 * Since i can’t access my dashboard either, i logged into my ftp account and downloaded
   my functions.php file.
 * Here’s a link to view my functions.php file: [http://pastebin.com/63vwFSjg](http://pastebin.com/63vwFSjg)
 * Can someone tell me what’s wrong so I could fix this??

 * remove this:
 *     ```
       function excerpt($num)
       {
       $limit = $num+1;
       $excerpt = explode(???? get_the_excerpt(), $limit);
       array_pop($excerpt);
       $excerpt = implode(????$excerpt).?앪€╈€?
       echo $excerpt;
       }
       ```
   
 * this might have been corrupted from ‘copy/paste’ (there should be no `????` and`.?
   앪€╈€?` );
    then find the correct code for this function, and put it back into
   functions.php
