SyntaxError: Unexpected token ?

If you haven’t made any upgrades recently and this just started happening, you may have a hacked site – a “Syntax Error” occurs when there’s a change to your site’s code, which could happen because someone edited a file, or an upgrade contained files with untested code in them.

It started back on the last upgrade just before Thanksgiving. Any ideas on where to look for the syntax error?

Also noticed alot of postings about this same issue but no resolution.

If you paste the whole error I can tell you which file to look in.

Do you mean the last upgrade to WooCommerce, or to your theme?

Last upgrade to woocommerce and also still the same after the recent upgrade a day or so ago
I have went as far as reinstalling all themes, woocommerce and WP the site is https://www.eatgafftaperadio.com

Hmm… I was able to get to the Checkout page where I have to type in my address w/out seeing the error.

Can you try the steps your proposed in the original post, but when you are NOT logged in to the site, and tell me where the error shows up?

When you shop the page choose any random item then proceed to checkout like normal and input all your info then click on the terms and then click to go to paypal is when you get the error

I see the problem (but not the file where it occurs. D’oh!)

Do you have a debug.log file inside your wp-content directory? You should see some error messages in there.

If you don’t have that file in your wp-content directory, you can turn on error logging by doing this in your wp-config.php file:

@ini_set( 'log_errors', 'Off' );
@ini_set( 'display_errors', 'On' );
define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', false );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true );

I would also suggest trying to switch to a different theme and see if you are able to proceed to the payment gateway. Since you don’t have any plugins besides woocommerce, it’s likely that the problem is occurring in your theme’s JavaScript.

This is the 3rd theme I have tried. Everything seems to work in the parent themes but when you use a child them it all goes to hell in a handbasket lol

I will check the logs real quick

I am not finding any logs at all

tried from a second computer and getting SyntaxError: invalid charactor

So while inspecting the CHILD THEME with NO PLUGINS ACTIVE except for woocommerce this is what I found while in console mode for chrome. I have been down almost a month now and would really like to get this fixed.

jquery-migrate.js?ver=1.2.1:21 JQMIGRATE: Logging is active
jquery-migrate.js?ver=1.2.1:41 JQMIGRATE: jQuery is not compatible with Quirks Mode
jquery-migrate.js?ver=1.2.1:43 console.trace()migrateWarn @ jquery-migrate.js?ver=1.2.1:43

[ No bumping please. ]

Hi there,

Well, there’s a pinned post at the top of the WooCommerce forums that suggests that this is an Ajax-related issue.

Did you set up the logging as I suggested? If there’s an error or warning you will see something in the debug.log file in wp-content (and you may have some other PHP error_log files somewhere in your files).

What hosting provider do you use?

Got the log up and running. i use Arvixe as my hosting provider. I did take the site out of maintenance mode so it can be diagnosed properly. I did find 2 plugins that had issues when I activated them and sent notices to the authors. But still having the issue above when I disable all plugins within the child theme.

Ancawonka if you email me at [ redacted, support is not offered via email, Skype, IM etc. only in the forums ] I can show you the logs
