 * Hi!
 * I’m trying to install a new theme but there’s an error in tools.php
 * `Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STATIC in /home/caiod073/public_html/
   wp-content/themes/calypso/core/classes/tools.php on line 36`
 * I don’t know what to do, it’s my first time using wordpress.

   $return[$k] = static::arr($array, $k, $default); 37 } 38 return $return; }

 * where did you get the theme from?
 * it does not seem to be one of these supported themes [https://wordpress.org/themes/](https://wordpress.org/themes/)…
 * have you tried to contact the theme’s developer for help?
