Okay the last most annoying bug that I must remove before my launch is this pesky 404 error that I keep getting when I click the "Additional Options" button below the post entry box. Can anyone help to understand why this is happening. It may be related to a modification but it is such a general issue that I was hoping someone beyond the support threads I've visited could help me out.
Thanks in advance... :-)
What's in your forum's error log that seems to be related?

That is pretty much every error log on the first page.
What is line 3035 of your Subs.php?
Is there a way to find that out with out counting them all by hand Lol?

*grin*
Well, in most text editors you can view line numbers, but if you want to just attach it here, I'll take a look at it, although I may disappear on you soon; I have to go out in a bit.
*leaving a note for tRu3_sKiTz0*
Sorry, I've run out of time and have to dash, but do attach your Subs.php (by clicking Additional Options below the reply box, browse to it and post) and someone will take a look.
Also... how did you install the mod (package manager or manually)?
Which 2.x version of SMF?
What language is your forum set to (Server Settings)?
Are you using a custom theme?
Check and make sure the file PrettyUrls-Filters.php is actually sitting in your Sources folder.
Just some things you might be asked.
:)
Here is line 3035:
array('<blockquote>' => '<blockquote class="bbc_' . ($quote_alt ?
Part package install part manual.
SMF v2.0RC3.
I've customized the curve theme.
I just found this while watching a couple guests:

So even though guests can't post, there is still an error poping up for a guest ip. And it is listed just as it is in the error log. I don't know if this helps but that is what is going on.
Okay when I look at line 3035 of the file by clicking on the error report, I get this line:
require_once($sourcedir . '/PrettyUrls-Filters.php');
I hope this all helps to figure this out.
I really expected this to be sorted, this morning. Well, I'm up, but still without coffee. I'll take a look at your Subs.php and, in the meantime, I'd like for you to confirm that your PrettyUrls-Filters.php is actually found in your Sources folder? :)
Guest 8: Undefined variable: sourcedir
$sourcedir is not in globals. it's trying to find PrettyUrls-Filters.php from root directory of server. not in sources directory.
So should I put it in the root directory then?
And yes it is in my sources folder.

That's why I'm stumped, Niko... I've found it in her Subs.php here, where the parsing instructions say to add it:
global $scripturl, $context, $modSettings, $db_show_debug, $db_cache, $sourcedir;
I've added it one more place, though, where it seems as if it should be.... Thanks! :)
Try uploading this attached Subs.php to your sources folder, tRu3_sKiTz0, and see if it changes anything.

Nope still getting the error. I'm not even sure if this error is the same that is in my error log. I have tried it a couple times this morning and there are no new logs but I keep getting the error. This is what it looks like when I click more options while posting:
Internal Server ErrorThe server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator,

Is this Internal Server error new, today?
It has been happening for a couple days now. It's the last pesky little bug that I must get fixed. I'm not sure what you mean by new.
I just wondered if you were getting that since uploading that last Subs.php file I gave you. :)
Tell you what; since yours was fine, let's upload that again, just to put things back to where they were and let me do a bit of searching around.
Okay sounds good. I will keep searching also. Oh and here are a couple screen shots of the error so you can see what's happening.
Is Pretty URLs something recently added and this has been happening since then? If not, do you remember adding any other mod that coincides with the timing of this error?
Yes and no. I noticed this error after experimenting with a couple different mods for SEO. I got errors with PrettyURLs and redirect page. Redirect page gave me the most trouble and may have glitched something somewhere but I can't honestly blame one mod and that is why I posted it on the main support page.

Ah..... when you say "experimenting"..... well, first of all, I get nervous. *grin* But, when you say "experimenting" was this done via the package manager and uninstalled, later, or did you do this manually? Can you tell me which mods we're talking about?
I used pakage manager on simple SEF installed then uninstalled with no errors. I installed redirect page and didn't notice any errors. I installed pretty urls with no apparent errors until I got this nasty little redirect error and I think that is where a ton of my error log is coming from because the site was down for a whole day until I finshed manually uninstalling both of these mods because I was getting uninstall errors. Then I had to manually install one or two of the pretty url strings and use package manager for the rest of it.

Somewhere in this murky swamp lives the monster. ;) There may be some remnant of simpleSEF, etc.
If you're agreeable to providing a test admin account to your forum (that you can delete later) and also ftp log in details, I'd like to look at all the involved files. Before you do, though, have a look at this link:
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=228940.0 (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=228940.0)
EDIT: Do this via PM, though, not on the boards. :)
Well I will certainly consider it. Please understand that I want to trust you especially since you are the first to really help me out so much already. I am hoping that there is a simpler solution but let me back some stuff up and change some other PWs around and then I will set up a second admin account. In the mean time, hopefully another solution may arise.

No worries; that's why I provided the link. One must be careful when providing sensitive information. I would advise you to pull up the parsing for all three mods, making sure that all edits for the two you don't want are gone and making sure that Pretty URLs is correct on all files.
Good luck with it, tRu3_sKiTz0 and do check back later, in the event that someone else has weighed in on this thread with a solution. ;)
Hey gbsothere, do you have aim? I will PM you thisw sam question. I would really like to talk with you a little more. I have skype also. This would help to ease my concerns some what.

I will just go ahead and set one up now because I planned on setting up every possible network for my forum anyway. Gimme about ten minutes and I will get ahold of ya on this.

Sure, go ahead. I'll go find some coffee. *S*
installing now...
Okay I uninstalled and checked and I am still getting the error so it isnt pretty urls at all.
Dang! I was hopeful... :-\
So..... with or without, huh?
Would you try going to Admin==> Forum Maintenance and clear your cache and see? In fact, running forum maintenance couldn't hurt. Try "Find and Repair any errors", as well.
Okay did all that and still getting error. :-(
Now, we're ready to call the server. *sigh*
If Pretty URLs was still in play, I'd still think it was the culprit, but you've uninstalled it.
I suppose all your tables are okay in your database, since you are able to post; you're just seeing the error (and since you just ran forum maintenance).
Perhaps check your server error logs and have one of the server techs weigh in on it?
Other than that, all you savvy support helpers looking in; any suggestions would be helpful. ;)
Yes and thank you so far for all the help!

Your server wasn't any help, either, I take it? :)
No not so far. I don't get it. I hope a dev sees this.
Just a thought, while we're waiting, and you may not wish to try this... but, if you don't have a lot of mods, it might be the simplest way to troubleshoot this. If I were in your position, I'd just reupload all fresh RC3 files from the zip (via ftp) with the exception of Settings.php and Settings_bak.php. Those two should remained untouched and you may even want to save them from your server onto your desktop just to make sure they don't get overwritten (so that you can reupload them, if they do). But if there's any rogue code in there, fresh files, then emptying your forum's cache ought to fix this.
Yeah I've already put too much time into setting it all up there is no way I would start over now.

How many mods do you have and are you still using Curve?
I have around 50 including avatars. I am still using my custom curve theme.
Well, I can see your reluctance, then.
If you haven't done it already, you might want to start a ticket on your server to ask them about this and also check the server logs. I'm sorry that it's slow to be resolved, but others will see this when they glean through this board and I'm confident that someone will have the right insight on this. :)
Yeah, I'm sure you're right. I will keep my fingers crossed. And I will talk to my wwebmaster tomorrow. Maybe he can figure it out.

That's a good idea, tRu3_sKiTz0 and, if you later change your mind and want someone here to look at it, I'm sure one of the staff members would be willing to.
Goodnight. :)
Thanks again man! I'll keep workin on it for now.
I have been checking regularly and my admin error log has no new errors even though this is still happening. I'm not sure what this means but hopefully my webmaster will be available today.

You reinstalled Pretty URLs, didn't you? Are you back to getting the PrettyURLs-Filter.php file not found error or is it now just the Internal Sever error?
No just the 404 error that pops up in the "Additional Options" tab. I was getting some other errors because I had a package that I never turned on so I uninstalled it. I think it was buy me a drink or something. Once I got rid of that I have no more error logs what-so-ever. But I still keep getting that pesky 404 error. At this point it really is nothing more than a cosmetic issue but when you are dealing with pofessional people and business owners, you don't want any visible errors or they will be discouraged. So this error really is one of the biggest pains I have had with setting this forum up. And I have come across some pretty nasty errors. The biggest problem is not know where the hell it is coming from. I don't think it ever had anything to do with prettyurls. Oh and yeah I did reinstall it. But that isn't the issue. I think that error was fixed and I was just looking at an older error log that had nothing to do with the current error at all.
Did you ever log into your server and check those logs? Since it's a server error, that would be more telling than forum error logs.
Yeah I checked those also, I can tell you it is the oddest thing. and I just don't understand what could make it do this. It must be isolated to the options tab. Maybe if someone could take a look at what files are related to that button... idk...
Well.... I could take a look at your Post.php and your Post.template.php. I'm not sure it would help but it couldn't hurt.
Okay I'm gonna go ahead post my posts.template.php. I'm looking at the template/php file now and there seems to be a lot about the additiional options in here.
I'll take a look at it and, if you can attach your Post.php, from Sources, as well, that might be helpful. :)
Okay.
Just keeping you informed, tRu3_sKiTz0... I do see that a mod has changed the code for Additional Options. I'm just going through it, now, line by line...
The mod in question is Simple Imageshack.
I'll post again when I've finished going through it.
tRu3_sKiTz0, there is only one mod keeping your Post.php from being as pristine as it was when it came out of the box and that is Advanced Reputation. I'm sure this is not your problem.
There is only one mod keeping your Post.template.php from being "box clean" and that is Simple ImageShack. Its edits are placed right into the middle of your Advanced Options strings. This one wouldn't surprise me, if it was implicated. I removed it from my own board long ago because of the errors it spawned.
Rather than going to the trouble to completely uninstall it, my suggestion would be this: upload a clean Post.template.php to your default folder. If the error goes away, then post on the support thread for Simple ImageShack and ask for some insight into this. (The mod won't work properly without its edits being included in Post.template.php, but at least you'll know the source of the error, if uploading a fresh Post.template.php makes the error go away. )
Okay then later on I will find a clean post.template.php and upload that to see what happens. Any we can move some stuff around?

There will be a clean file in the RC3 zip you downloaded in "default". Move some stuff around? As far as Simple Imageshack's edits? Well, if a clean file makes the error go away, then, if it were me, I'd post on the thread and inform the author that you used the package manager, which placed the edits where they are supposed to go but that it is throwing an error. He may be able to suggest an alternate edit. Of course, if you upload a clean file and the error doesn't go away, we're back at square one.
Hey I know wIt's simple image shack! I need to get rid of this damn mod and unfortunately it won't parse. Is there a way to find out what edits need to be made without using the parse feature on the mod page?
EDIT: My bad, I'm retarded. I just wasn't clicking the correct package to parse. This should be fixed soon and then I will mark as resolved.
Okay, I got! It was Simple Image Shack. I finally got it uninstalled and poof#! No more error. Thanks for all the help gbsothere. feel free to add me as a friend. You were very helpful.
