    Dear Allan and Jesús,

    Thank you both for the instructive and reassuring replies.

    I followed your suggestion and identified a number of ways whereby I could re-install the core files for WordPress.

    One of them is to reinstall WordPress via my dashboard (http://www.kinetikink.com/wp-login.php). Given, however, that I am unable to log in to my dashboard (because of the parse error screen), another way is to do so via FTP.

    According to Kinsta,”If you can’t access your WordPress dashboard because of an error (or just prefer to work over FTP), you can perform a similar process via http://FTP.”

    Please pardon my ignorance (this is all new to me as my web literacy is quite limited and I’m having to learn from scratch), but I am assuming that by FTP it is meant File Transfer Protocol.

    According to Investopedia,”FileZilla is a free, downloadable FTP client’. Would you recommend using this program for reinstalling WordPress?

    Kind regards,

    Varga Hosseini

    Dear Jesús,

    Thank you so much for your prompt and generous reply to my message.

    I’ll provide a bit of background to the issue in question. Last night, I contacted Hosting24 and a staff member helped me access my Cpanel and then rename (disable) the theme and the plug-ins.

    I then re-attempted to log in to my WordPress admin page (http://www.kinetikink.com/wp-login.php) but was directed to the same grey screen with the following message:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected end of file, expecting ‘)’ in /home/kinetiki/public_html/wp-includes/theme.php on line 3966

    The staffer at Hosting24 explained that the issue concerned the last lines of the following code:

    ‘show_in_rest’ => array(
    ‘schema’ => array(
    ‘items’

    Elaborating on the issue, he explained,”the one that says ‘items’ is the one that is causing the issue! Seems like this code is incomplete yet why exactly it is incomplete – that would be just a guess, could be human error, could be some plugin or theme altering your code yet a certain reason cannot be established, I am sure you understand”.

    I hope this provides some clarification and will go some way towards resolving the issue.

    Kind Regards,

    Varga Hosseini
