If your version of PHP is lower than 7.1, you’ll need to upgrade it. PHP 7.1 is the required minimum. WordPress suggests a minimum of version 7.4.
Thanks for the answer but the server is running on php 7.4.22.
I’m not a programmer but isn’t this a php syntax error adding a question mark in this line of code:
public function get_instance(): ?ReduxFramework {
It’s a Nullable Type. It mean the return value accepts the specific object or a null as a return value and was added in PHP 7.0. Please go to your WordPress Site Health screen and verify through that interface the version of PHP running. In rare cases, the .htaccess can set an older version of PHP

I will contact the server support.
I’n consulting with other devs on this, as it makes no sense at all.
Please go into the functions.php of your project. At the beginning, add:
phpinfo();
die();
I’m only interested in the PHP version data, including possible CLI, fpm, and apache.
Once you have this, you can remove those lines.
At this LINK you will find all php info.
I’m at a loss. This defines logic. PHP should not not reject syntax it claims to support.
I can try your theme on my end. I know it’s premium, so if you want to use something like wetransfer.com to send it to me, I can take a look. You’ll need my email address to do so. It’s kevin.provance@gmail.com
Oh no ! Don’t kill me Kavin, but I confused my clients because two of them had different problems with the Redux plugin at the same time. It turned out that the person who had this problem
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘?’ In /wp-content/plugins/redux/redux-core/framework.php on line 717
was actually using php 7.0.
I’m really sorry and thank you for taking care of this.
I…pardon you. 😉
I *knew* it was old PHP!! I’m glad this was all cleared up.
