    Hi

    I have now figured out what is wrong with my blog. Apparently there is a problem with my archive.php file according to the following error message:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ELSE in /customers/pokerbankrollblog.com/pokerbankrollblog.com/httpd.www/wp-content/themes/delight/archive.php on line 53

    Does anybody know how to solve the problem as I am a complete idiot when it comes to programming.

    Best Regards

    Mark

  • Usually that error means something miss coded in a theme’s template file.

    If necessary, download and install a clean copy of your theme (see Using Themes for instruction on installing new themes).

    Hi Michael

    Problem is the archive.php file has been custom made, so it won’t be restored by installing a clean copy of the theme.
    Do you know how to fix the code in a php file?

    Then paste a copy of that template at a pastebin and report the link back here so maybe someone can see the problem…

    Hi

    Here’s a link to my archive.php at pastebin:

    https://pastebin.com/d260de02a

    As mentioned ealier the error seems to be in line 53 according to the error message I get:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ELSE in /customers/pokerbankrollblog.com/pokerbankrollblog.com/httpd.www/wp-content/themes/delight/archive.php on line 53

    Likely need this:

    <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

    after this line:

    <div id="content-left">

    Look at the wp-content/themes/default/archive.php for examples.
