• Hi guys I am a bit of a new to coding, anyway I had wordpress all setup and running but I had to edit the wp-config and force en_EN language to get a plugin to work (larsens Calender) when I saved the nicely formatted file in notepad and uploaded it I get a funky error

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/wasabith/public_html/wp-config.php on line 1

    So i downloaded the wp-confid.php again thinking I have made a typo or somethign stupid I open it up in wordpad and its now just 1 very long line of code instead of being all nice and formatted

    <?php/** * The base configurations of the WordPress. * * This file has the following configurations: MySQL settings, Table Prefix, * Secret Keys, WordPress Language, and ABSPATH.

  • Start with a new WP config file. Then use Wordpad or a free code editor.

    a hint — ANY plugin that makes you modify core wordpress files isn’t worth using.

    it was only to change the default language as the plugin is written in German and the Fantasticao install of wordpress via Cpanel does not set a default language so the plugin is all in German

    Is it best to install WP again into another directory and steal that config file and jsut change the DB Settings?

    larsens-calender is junk… too bad too, I was hoping for a decent calendar of events too
