Hello. I am newbie to PHP. I try to install one WordPress Theme: Rockwell But I have a problem. When I activate Theme from WordPress Admin Panel I get this error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in E:\xampp\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\rockwell\functions.php on line 220 Code (markup): Here is code in functions.php file: <?php if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') ) register_sidebar(array( 'before_widget' => '', 'after_widget' => '', 'before_title' => '<h2>', 'after_title' => '</h2>', ));

Not entirely sure, but here's a thought. Depending on how they are configured, some php servers will allow starting php with just: <? PHP: Others require: <?php PHP: You may have a server that requires the latter. Now take a look at line 208. Try changing: <? }?> PHP: to: <?php }?> PHP: From my limited php experience, the error you're getting usually happens when there is a missing close bracket somewhere. My thought is that php is not parsing that close bracket
Their won't always be short tags enabled (on every server), the best thing to do is spare a second to add the extra "php" would save you time in the future.
