Hi there,
Can you try using a default child theme from here?
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-child-theme/
Let me know :)
That is what I originally did. I get this error when trying to edit the header.php file and was trying to get around it.
Unable to communicate back with site to check for fatal errors, so the PHP change was reverted. You will need to upload your PHP file change by some other means, such as by using SFTP.
So you've added the header.php file in the child theme and trying to edit it?
Sounds like the edit is causing the issue and not because of making the child theme?
Correct. I can't save it no matter what I edit.
What exactly are you trying to edit?
The edit is causing the PHP error so you would need to double check your code/edit.
I am trying to edit header.php to add PHP to keep track of views per post using Advanced Custom Fields.
But I can't edit header.php at all. I can't even put a random space somewhere and save it.
Sounds like there is already an existing error.
Can you remove the existing one and add a fresh one instead?

I have an issue editing any of the PHP files in the Wordpress dashboard. I just edited them offline and uploaded via file manager. That work around is good enough for now. Thanks for your help.
No problem :)
