Menus Problem

[jason1308]

Just installed RC2, and trying to get the hang of it before the site goes live but I have noticed in the admin section the drop down menus don't show all the menu names.

For example, if I press the hover on the forum button, and hover over boards, I get a sub menu drop down to the side with two blank spaces (which are clicckable) and settings.

Is this normal or have I got a file missing ?

What happens if you click on those entries, where does it take you?

[jason1308]

In the above example, the first blank space takes me to Modify Boards and the second one to add catergory.

[Arantor]

Do you get any errors in the admin panel?

And what language are you using?

[jason1308]

Language I am using is English and site is http://clickingkingdom.com/forum [nofollow]

In the admin panel I get the problems I mentioned although I have just found out that if I Toggle the menu to the left hand side, I get all the missing bits that are not in the drop down.

But if I return back to the main board (without the left hand pane toggled) and say press profile, the profile shows up as you would expect then in the sub menus profile info, modify info and actions, if I then hover over show posts which brings up a further menu, all the 3 choices are again blank although if you put the mouse over the blank bit it highlights and you see the link url in the address bar.

hope you can sort this out,

Do you get any errors in the error log?

[jason1308]

I presume by error log, you mean via Admin Center > Forum Maintenence > Find and Repair errors

I clicked the button 'Run Task Now' and the message comes up 'Congratulations, no errors found! Thanks for checking.'

If there is another error log, then you will have to tell me where it is.

[Arantor]

No, I actually meant Admin > Maintenance > Logs > Error Log, as that will likely help identify the problem.

[jason1308]

Sorry, but I cannot find logs under maintenance.

All I have is :

• Check all files against current versions
  Find and repair errors
  recount all Forum totals and statistics
  Empty out unimportant logs
  Empty the file cache
  

Is it one of these ?  I cannot see any mention of logs or error logs except the find and repair errors

[Arantor]

Do you have the menu on the left side? If so it should be under there under Forum Error Log.

[jason1308]

With the Menu on the left hand side I have the following :


Main
Administration Center
Support and Credits
News and newsletters
Packages

Configuration
Features and Options
Server Settings
Current Theme
Themes and Layout
Twitter and Facebook Publisher Mod
Pretty URLs

I cannot see an error log.

[Arantor]

Can you browse to clickingkingdom.com/forum/index.php?action=admin;area=logs;sa=errorlog;desc and let me know what you find?

[jason1308]

Wow, that did the trick !

I got :  All errors (28586) | General (61) | Template (3) | Undefined (28519) | User (3)

Too many to list here

[Arantor]

Hmmmm. Lots of undefined errors there.

If you select Forum Maintenance, do you get a list of 'Routine' options, one of which is "Clear the file cache" ? Might want to try that one first.

[jason1308]

Did the clear Cache and re did the test and this is the new result

All errors (29464) | General (61) | Template (4) | Undefined (29396) | User (3)

[Arantor]

It won't change the number of errors, but does it fix the errors you already had?

[jason1308]

No, the problems are still there.

[Arantor]

Weird, very weird.

OK, let's start by taking a look at the errors and start whittling down by the process of elimination.

What are the user errors, first up?

[jason1308]

Not sure what I have done but the errors are now

That is the first page, hope it makes sense

[Arantor]

Hmm.

If you go into Themes/default/languages/, what files are in there?
