check your modifications.english.php and make sure there are no extra ?> in the file, there should only be one at the very bottom of the file.

@ FAQ

You can get a virtual version of SMF on your PC using WAMP. It will be wise to try mods on this installation before trying on live forum. Not an advice, but always take a backup before attempting any modification. At times, things can get worser. Learned the hard way.

Please attach the file instead of copy pasting it.

What mods do you have installed on your forum?

Moreover the related text string is not present in what you have copy pasted. Was there an error while installing or uinstalling the mod?

We need Modifications.english.php, not index.template.php. To attach files, click "Reply" at the bottom of the page, then click the "+" next to "Attachments and other options" and you will see a file upload box.

[ARG01]

They don't have enough posts to attach. I thought that i was seeing it in index.template but apparently not. In any case it is on line 1 of one of their files. Probaly Modifications.english.php

It's not in that file. Does the theme you're using have that file at all?

[ARG01]

It's not in that file. Does the theme you're using have that file at all?

No, only index.template and settings.template and then Settings.english in the language folder. But I really don't think that it is a language file issue.

[Oldiesmann]

The mod supposedly only adds that to the Modifications language file, so I'm not sure what the issue could be. The error about modification failed for Modifications.english.php is simply because the language string it's trying to remove from that file isn't even there. You should be able to continue with the uninstall if everything else is showing as successful.

[ARG01]

This is what I am getting in the top section when viewing their Page Source.

Maybe in index.php then?

[ARG01]

Could be. It should be real easy to find and fix but one would need access to their files to do so. One strange thing is that when I downloaded their attached Modifications.english.php it saved as index.php. 

[morpheuslogged]

What do we do next??Do we have to upload any other files ?

That's a bug with the way SMF handles file downloads and Firefox 8. There's more info about that issue floating around here somewhere.

Try attaching index.php.

Nothing wrong there either. Also, no need to double post. 

[ARG01]

You have too many files to attach for us to go through them all. Just open your default theme files one by one in a text editor. Which ever file has this line at the top, just remove that line and you should be good to go.

[meetdilip]

If I may suggest, simply download the themes folder, upload in some file sharing sites like Rapidshare and post the link here. Will save both parties the trouble of checking for the correct file.

[MrPhil]

It's very simple. Use whatever tool is available in your server or PC (if you have a copy of your files on your PC) to scan/search for the string You last visited: in your .php files. You will find a couple of lines

Code Select Expand


// MOD Ban Link in Post
$txt['ban_user_via_post'] = 'You last visited:';

in some .php file, outside of the PHP code (before <?php or after ?>). The mod was misinstalled, in the wrong place, and possibly into the wrong file.

we will try

[Adish - (F.L.A.M.E.R)]

Just adding/simpliflying what MrPhil said. Check that you dont have any entries in the files after ?> with the name 'Modifications.(language).php'

I suspect that you may be using utf8 file instead.

I am having a lol moment.
