    Running self-hosted site with WP 5.6.2 and updated Automattic’s Varia’s theme to 1.6.4 and my whole site went down. Got an email saying:

    When seeking help with this issue, you may be asked for some of the following information:
    WordPress version 5.6.2
    Current theme: Varia (version 1.6.4)
    Current plugin:  (version )
    PHP version 7.2.26
    
    Error Details
    =============
    An error of type E_PARSE was caused in line 206 of the file /home/animati3/public_html/wp-content/themes/varia-wpcom/functions.php. Error message: syntax error, unexpected ')'

    On line 205, there is a stray comma in the last function call. So even with the closed parenthesis, it still is expecting more code to follow:
    https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18050071/php-parse-syntax-errors-and-how-to-solve-them/18092308#18092308

    We just updated our site code, removed the comma, and the site was fine.
    But they need to fix it for everyone else!!!

  • I just downloaded, installed and activated a fresh copy of this theme (varia-wpcom-1.6.4.zip) but didn’t get any errors. I don’t know if this has been fixed silently, or something else is going on here.
