    Hi there,

    I'm using the News Pro theme as my foundation child theme to build my clients website with. I wanted the rough layout that News Pro gives and the mobile responsive CSS without having to write it all from scratch myself.

    I'm facing a problem though.

    I'm finding that all my custom code that I've placed at the bottom of the functions.php file is not being acted upon by the browser. Even worse is that sometimes I add code that is 100% effective in other themes and it causes a standard error from the News Pro functions.php file:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in /home/loveinpo/public_html/hcme/wp-content/themes/news-pro/functions.php on line 106

    There is no } on line 106! I've already read upwards to the beginning and there are NO stray }'s that I can find.

    Has anyone else had this problem with News Pro and adding additional code to the functions.php file?

    Thanks
    Cathie.

    Well, we'd have to see the code you are adding there to see why you are having the issues. Please post your code here and wrap it with the code button.
