Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING

craiglieberman · Aug 24, 2013

I manage a small little media website and went to add a string of code to the end to enable infinite scroll. I literally cut and pasted this cut to the very, very end of my existing code in my theme-functions.php file and I got this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/content/57/10515757/html/wp-content/themes/super-agency/functions.php on line 850

I searched Google and other similar topics in this forum and cannot for the life of me see where my error is. Since I literally only added to the end of the page and did NOT touch any code elsewhere, what the hell is causing this??? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated....the site is www.imaginatemedia.com Due to length restrictions, I've only submitted a portion of the code, near the end of the page, where I suspect the problem lies.

$video = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'wf_theme_portfolio_video', true);
$link = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'wf_theme_portfolio_link', true);

wp_nonce_field('wf_theme_save', 'wf_theme_nonce');

How about saving us a lot of hassle and just show us the relevant bit of the code (use the forum markup tags described in the FAQs when doing this). Say ... oooh, line 850?
