Yes, because of the error the WP interface will not work. So you have to use FileZilla or something to overwrite the file.

Yep, that’s right!

If that is exactly how your functions.php file looks, then the problem is at the bottom. The file should look like this…

<?php

*** CODE ETC HERE ***

?>

And from what I see your file looks like this…

*** CODE HERE ***

<?php?>

I hope this helps

It’s because there is a “<” in the code that shouldn’t be there, maybe you pasted <?php by accident.

If you have edited the code in WP, you are not going to be able to make the change in there. You will have to overwrite the file using an FTP client.

I can’t really tell you the issue if I can’t see the code

Also I do not want to use a plugin to achieve this

I managed to figure this out. The code can be found here: https://pastebin.com/uZL4sTxV

That worked perfectly, thanks for your help Sam
