9,555 PointsHaving problems linking JS, CSS and SCSS into functions.php PLEASE HELP!
Hi lovely people, I'm getting the following error message from my browser whilst trying to import js, css and scss files into functions.php.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';', expecting '{' in C:\Users\me\Desktop\USBWebserver v8.6\root\wordpress\wp-content\themes\kadgltd\functions.php on line 3
I can't for the life in me figure out where the error is. Could anyone advise what i'm doing wrong?
Thank you very much in advance!!

31,249 PointsThere might be a few problems but the error is because you've included a semi-colon at the end of the function name before the opening curly brace. Remove this from both function kadg_theme_styles(); { and function kadg_theme_js(); { and that should fix that particular problem.
You also wouldn't want to enqueue your scss files in a WordPress theme, as these should be getting compiled into a single css file (ideally your theme's style.css file).
If you have any further issues/questions after attempting the above suggestions, let us know.

9,555 PointsHi Joel, Thanks for responding. I've only just embraced WordPress after years of hand coding. I appreciate any help I can get in getting my head around this. This is literally the first theme I've tried to build from scratch. It's like learning a whole new language despite it being based on a language I thought I had a pretty good understanding of. Beginning to feel like a newb coder again. :-(
