PHP Parse error in wp-config file
It was a hard start for this WP Blog site. I had to use my error log to figure out a syntax error in the wp-config.php file. I went to the
Sample file
/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);/** The Database Collate type. Don’t change this if in doubt. */
define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);/**#@+
* Authentication Unique Keys and Salts.
My file after correction
/**#@+
/** The Database Collate type. Don’t change this if in doubt. */
define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);
/** Authentication Unique Keys and Salts.
*
* Change these to different unique phrases!
* You can generate these using the {@link https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt/ WordPress.org secret-key service}
* You can change these at any point in time to invalidate all existing cookies. This will force all users to have to log in again.
*
* @since 2.6.0
*/
My error was made when pasting in the Keys and Salts. Here is the parse error
* Authentication Unique Keys and Salts.
Correcting this problem eliminated my White Screen of Death.
