URGENT PLEASE: Parse error: syntax error

[Kate789]

Hi, I have just applied the latest updates and now have this error come up whenever I try to edit any page:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘&’ in /websites/sm/smileiq.com.au/wp-content/themes/atelier/includes/meta-box/inc/fields/choice.php on line 99

Additionally, some content is now not visible on some pages e.g. Blog posts, FAQs and products in Shop page.

Can you please assist?

Thanks.

Please ask your host to upgrade you to the latest PHP version.

To amend whilst they do this, please locate the file /wp-content/themes/atelier/includes/meta-box/inc/fields/choice.php and on line 99 change this from foreach ( (array) $options as &$option ) to foreach ( (array) $options as $option ).

Hi,
I have managed to resolve the issue so please check it now. I edited the choice.php file at /atelier/includes/meta-box/inc/fields/.
Find this code at line 99 :-
foreach ( (array) $options as &$option )

Change to:-
foreach ( (array) $options as $option )
Thanks

Hi, thank you, I am able to get into edit pages now without the error coming up but there is still content missing from pages e.g. Blog posts, FAQs and products in Shop page. The content is still in the back end, but doesn’t show on the pages…

Thanks.

Hi

Can you provide a link to those pages so I can check?

Update: I have updated the PHP to 5.6 and cleared the cache and everything appears to be working again. Thank you all for your help.

Great, glad it’s sorted. FYI we have just released v2.1.1 to resolve this if you are unable to update your PHP version.
