Last couple of days I have noticed hundreds of the following errors in the log,
can anyone please enlighten me.

smf 2.0.11

index.php
2: implode(): Invalid arguments passed
File: /var/www/smf/Themes/default/BoardIndex.template.php
Line: 330

8: Undefined variable: user_info
File: /var/www/smf/Themes/default/BoardIndex.template.php
Line: 330

thanks for any help

[Kindred]

well, what is line 330 of your BoardIndex.template.php file?
actually, please paste from around lines 320-335


what mods do you have installed?

[zurgenaboy]

Havnt looked as its been years since I touched anything in code.
The last mod I installed was sc light
and not sure if that was before or after the upgrade to 2.0.11

Thanks for your quick reply

[zurgenaboy]

I have just viewed that file in the cp, but there are no line numbers to equate too.

[Kindred]

you would need to view it in a text editor that shows line numbers... or attach the whole file

[zurgenaboy]

working on that now, thanks, brb

[zurgenaboy]

Well, for some reason your $user_info isn't globalised.

Try this copy:

OK, I have downloaded and replaced that file.
Have cleared the log of all 989 errors and will now keep an eye on the log.

Many, many, thanks for all the help

will come back and either ask for more help, or as I anticipate, close this thread.

Just for future knowledge, when posting code, use the code tags.

[zurgenaboy]

what are the code tags ?

I am 76 and havnt done anything like this for 20 years....lol

... (I think I installed popular topic of the day as well)

That's the cause of the problem - it was reported to Runic (the mod taker-overer) but remains as an outstanding bug in the package.

Above this text reply box where all the smileys and buttons are, select this one:

It will give you this: [code][/code] ... paste the code in thar ...

[zurgenaboy]

Well, you relearn something every day....

Thanks a bunch to everyone who replied, what an excellent service.

[Steve]

Relearn something new every day ... love that!

Don't forget to mark this topic solved once you've decided your problem's been fixed, if it has.

Sorry to bump this old topic. Have you got this sorted out?

We have this issue as well and to me it seems te be caused by the fact that the most popular topic of the day is currently a topic that is in a board only visible for moderators.
