I've currently been developing a site locally using AMPPS without any problems. Today I deployed the site expecting minimal problems, but lo-and-behold, many.
On my local copy, It runs perfect. Not a single problem to be had. But once I uploaded a copy to my host, things seem to fall apart.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in ../public_html/wp-content/themes/oblivion/functions.php on line 1
Line one of functions.php, of course, is simply a <?php tag.
Google searches involving this problem are fairly difficult, as it seems to just ignore the brace, and show me results with any sort of error. I have no idea where to start looking as I've only just recently started to dabble with WordPress. The fact that it worked locally, and then falls to pieces when deployed is very confusing.
