Ok, everything is clear then. Wordpress, since version 4.5, requires minimum PHP 5.6. It means your current PHP version is older than 5.6 and doesn’t support necessary Wordpress functions. We recommend you to contact with your admin/hosting provider because your PHP version requires update.
That is also incorrect. I can copy the URL in the BACKUP section from another site and paste it and the site displays fine . If I do any edits it stops working, this not wordpress its an issue with the template.
So what? Because it's GoDaddy, you are trying to tell us that they don't need to update php versions? Your hosting is simply not Wordpress ready and if you don't know what we are talking about take a look at https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/ where requirements from official Wordpress site are. It's time to changing hosting if they provide such terrible service.
Why? Because it's Wordpress Official Requirement and if you don't understand it, then we really don't know how to explain it more clearer. Your hosting is simply not Wordpress ready. Wordpress goes ahead and thus requirements change.
