help for syntax error, unexpected T_ECHO, expecting ',' or ';

I am having trouble with my function.php file. Please help!


Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ECHO, expecting ',' or ';' in site/wp-content/themes/theme/functions.php on line 31

Line 31

echo "143191220"echo $contentecho " [...]"$content=substr($content,0,$espacio)$espacio=strpos($content," ",$max_char)strlen;

 

put a ; after echo "143191220" and echo $content

 

you are not using the ";" anywhere in the code, after statements
should be:
echo "143191220";
echo $content;
echo " [...]";
$content=substr($content,0,$espacio);
$espacio=strpos($content," ",$max_char);

???strlen;???

and so on...

 

it worked but another error line 44 which is
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in

42 function cat_id_to_name($id){
43 $category
44 $category
45 function get_image($postid = 0,$size = "full"){
46 $postid=get_the_ID();
47 $thumb=get_post_meta($postid,"thumb");
48 echo $thumb;
49 while ($images=get_children()) {

 

these lines:

$category
$category

PHP:

when some word is starting with a $ means that is a variable
if you start a line with a variable like $x, you should then assign a value
example:

$x=1;
$category=1;

PHP:

a variable can have different types (integer, float, string and so on)
for example if you write:

$category="my category name";

PHP:

php will automatically know that this is a string

in this line, for example:

$thumb=get_post_meta($postid,"thumb");

PHP:

you are assigning to the variable $thumb what is returned by the function get_post_meta, giving those values ($postid, "thumb")

then, many are php functions, many others can be custom functions
for example get_post_meta seems a wordpress function, so I guess you are using wordpress

anyway, you can't only write:

$x

PHP:

or

$category

PHP:

because it means nothing

 

thank you but that didnt solved the problem need more information and yes i m using wordpress

 

is any1 else could hep me with this problem ?
