Hello there, after last update there seems to be a syntax error in the theme on my platform.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘[‘ in ……mywebsite……/public_html/wp-content/themes/xstore/theme/custom-styles.php on line 313

This is the line of code:

$menu_links_border_style = etheme_get_option(‘menu-border-style’)[‘border-style’];
$menu_links_border_style_hover = etheme_get_option(‘menu-border-style-hover’)[‘border-style’];
$menu_dropdown_border_style = etheme_get_option(‘menu_dropdown_border_style’)[‘border-style’];
$header_bg = etheme_get_custom_field(‘header_bg’, $post_id[‘id’]);
$header_bg_transparent = etheme_get_custom_field(‘header_transparent’, $post_id[‘id’]);
if ( $header_bg_transparent ) {
$header_bg = ‘transparent’;
}

After removing [‘border-style’]from above code my website seems to be functioning again.

Is this going to be resolved in future updates or is this something I can resolve myself?
As I am running on a somewhat older PHP version as my previous (live) website can’t handle a higher version. Once I completed this new website I am upgrading the php version.

Cant see this right now. But can this give this syntax error? Because then all I need is to upgrade my php version once completing the website.

Hello,

PHP version can be the reason but we want to be sure and need to test. So, go to WooCommerce > Status > check the version and let me know.

Hello,

Yes, it could be the reason. If you plan to update PHP version then inform me if you still have this problem after the update. Because you are the first who reported such error.
