[SOLVED] Undefined Index : modSettings

[alan s]

SMF version: SMF 1.1.5
TP version: 1.0 beta 1
Theme name and version: SMF Default with a few colour modifications

Okay , So filling the error logs when someone goes to the index page ( index.php ) Which displays articles in this case , is the error

8: Undefined variable: modSettings
File: /home/bimeiden/domains/bimeiden.nl/public_html/Themes/default/TPBlocks.template.php(52) : eval()'d code
Linel: 122

I have look in TPBlocks.template.php and there is no $modSettings on line 122 , just a "}"

I have also done a search and cannot find any other reports of this problem.

Any custom code in articles or blocks? I get at least a page or 2 in the search for this. Make sure you search from the main search page and not just within a single board.

[alan s]

There are 2 bits of custom code in the blocks , Only plain text/images in articles.

Code 1 , upcoming members birthdays displays there age , username and avatar.

echo '<style type="text/css">
<!--
div.scroll {

/*
Upcoming Member Birthdays With Avatar & Age
August 10, 2008 / Tim Antley / www.BayouMX.com
- updated to display avatars per request (Blouogies)
- updated with option to display age or not

Script for retrieving upcoming member birthdays for current month.
Calculates age and links to profile by member's name.
Admin can justify output to the left, center, or right by $justify variable.

Optional: Can list birthdays by month specified in URL; use ?month=xx
Optional: Can parse birthdays from certain day to end of month; use ?day=xx
Optional: Specify justification through URL; ?justify=right
Optional: Set number of birthdays to return; ?limit=5 (defaults to list all)
Optional: Use avatar display; can also set max height & width
Optional: Display of member's age

Note: In order to use both URL options, the second and following parameters
MUST use an ampersand (&) instead of a question mark.
Example: list_birthdays.php?month=7&day=15  << Will list from the 15th to end of July.

Does not parse URL parameters for valid input; i.e. month #13 = nothing!
Nobody reads all this!

AlanS,

Try putting $modSetting after the global statement in the birthday snippet I wrote.

Something like:

Code Select Expand

global $db_prefix, $scripturl, $modSetting;

and see if that cures the error you are getting.

[alan s]

I have tried that , The error still appears.

Thanks

[Ianedres]

Haven't forgotten about you... just been very busy.

Looking it over, it almost looks to be too simple- but I suggested $modSetting and omitted the trailing 's' from the variable. Also, php is case-sensitive, so be sure to place the capital 'S' in the middle.

Will be on stand-by while you try this suggestion. 

[alan s]

That worked , Thanks very much!

[Ianedres]

Good to know that fixed it. Will marked as [SOLVED]...
