# Syntax fatal error

 *  Resolved [betuli](https://wordpress.org/support/users/betuli/)
 * (@betuli)
 * [9 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/syntax-fatal-error/)
 * I added one line of code to the function.php file but then removed it because
   it was unnecessary for what I needed to do. I’m positive I deleted that line 
   and that line only and that the original code is untouched. Even so, now I get
   this error on both backend and frontend of my site:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<‘ in /home/forge/vacanzepavesi.me-in-
   italy.com/public/wp-content/themes/clarina/functions.php on line 442
 * the thing is line 442 is empty!
 * my website is [https://vacanzepavesi.me-in-italy.com/negozio/](https://vacanzepavesi.me-in-italy.com/negozio/)
 * Can anyone help?

 * Hi [@rodicaelena](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rodicaelena/),
    I’ve solved
   the problem now – I removed a bit of code by mistake, so once I found the missing
   bit I was able to add it again. Thanks anyway!
