 * Hi, I am a new to coding and have a problem. Can you please help me solve this
   issue? I was trying to follow a site on how to edit “Powered by” so its most 
   likely on that line. Or please let me know any way to fix this. Thank you so 
   much.
 * <?php _e(‘Powered by’,’Nirvana’)?> <a target=”_blank” href=”<?php
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/content/86/7459886/html/
   wp-content/themes/nirvana/includes/theme-functions.php on line 412
 * /**
    * Site info */ function nirvana_site_info() { $nirvanas = nirvana_get_theme_options();
   foreach ($nirvanas as $key => $value) { ${“$key”} = $value ; } ?> <em style=”
   display:table;margin:0 auto;float:none;text-align:center;padding:7px 0;font-size:
   13px;”> <?php _e(‘Powered by’,’Nirvana’)?> ” title=”<?php echo ‘Nirvana Theme
   by ‘. ‘Cryout Creations’;?>”><?php echo ‘Nirvana’ ?> & ” title=”<?php esc_attr_e(‘
   Semantic Personal Publishing Platform’, ‘nirvana’); ?>”> <?php printf(‘ %s.’,‘

   nirvana_site_info’,15);

 * your currently active theme “nirvana” seems to be the error.
 * Repair/replace the /wp-content/themes/nirvana/includes/theme-functions.php file
   using [FTP ](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients), or your web-host’s cPanel
   or whatever file management application your host provides (no Dashboard access
   required).
