I'm sorry i'm new to SMF i'm not sure what you meant by checking the language file.

sure, if you unzip the mod and view the modification file you will see the language strings that need to be added and to which file. if you switch to the default theme you should see it working

purplegold · May 23, 2007, 10:11:23 AM

Actually thats not true. I've done that before, switched to the default theme and it still show the same. I looked into the language modification file and i have the myspace language in there. It is written the same as YIM.AIM, MSN and so forth.

ok, then your missing the changes in the profile.template. check the modification file for the changes. Did you apply the mod manual or via the package manager?

purplegold · May 23, 2007, 12:23:22 PM

I've installed it via the packages manager. When I open the profile template, I already found myspace in it. expect i put it on a new line. So far nothing seems to be working. Should i uninstall it and upload it into my ftp instead of using the packages manager?

that might do the trick. give it a try. it shouldn't matter though.

There is no such luck. Although i uninstall the myspace mod, i can't seem to get rid of the section where myspace was to show up. since all it showes is
:
I'm assuming i'm missing some kind of language file.

ok, got it. I took a look at the profile.template.

the text string is there, so your missing this modification in /languages/index.english.php.

Code Select


<file name="$themedir/languages/index.english.php">
		<!-- A seach operation, with search rules and code to modify the file with. -->
		<operation>
			<!-- Search for this text before the code we add.&nbsp; You can also search for after, and the end of the file. -->
			<search position="before"><![CDATA[$txt['MSN'] = 'MSN';]]></search>
			<!-- Add this text when we find it.&nbsp; Note that it's on it's own line on purpose, and the CDATA keeps things clean. -->
			<add><![CDATA[$txt['MYSPACE'] = 'MYSPACE';
				$txt['myspaceInput'] = '(ex: http://www.myspace.com/_________)';]]></add>
		</operation>

		</file>

in your theme folder, you will find another folder languages. In the languages folder you will find a file named index.english.php. You need to check if the txt string is defined. IF your missing it just add...

$txt['MYSPACE'] = 'MYSPACE';
$txt['myspaceInput'] = '(ex: http://www.myspace.com/_________)';

before the closing of the php.

I forgot to mention the problem i was having befoe i saw : but not the text. now i see MYSPACE and the mod isn't installed since it was showing up more then once for i have uninstalled and installed in the beginning. Now i try to reinstall and the text shows up 2 other times how can i take the first text off and try again and install the mod? IF i try to input my myspace url it gives me an error and the page doesn't display. How do i take it off?

Sorry but this is just getting worst and worst lol.

zip me up all the file modified in the mod and email them to me, just grab them using ftp. I'll take a look at them.

I made the mistake of deleting my themes/sources. But i was able to back up the database. however i reinstalled the whole site and used the back up and i had myspace blank : section left. I input the code you mentioned in the themes index.english and myspace showed up. Of course it cannot work without the mod right? so i tried installing the mod and i discovered the problem.
. Execute Modification ./Themes/default/Profile.template.php Test failed

the test is always failing, even before that it was told it installed properly and then i uninstalled only to be told the file doesn't uninstall properly and i think thats why i get things stucked.

I'm not sure about which files since i mention i've reinstalled SMF and i back it up and i write over it.

can you send me that file. it may be the code is there already. if you have no other mods installed, then you can uninstall all mods, download a fresh copy of the forum software, and upload the files in question. then re-apply any mod using a default fresh forum.

i have other mods installed also

purplegold · June 03, 2007, 06:32:45 AM

I'm not a coder but since if you read up you'd notice i have the same problem. The first time you installed the hack it is stuck in your load.php file i assume. Did you make a back up befoe you installed this mod?

@ snork13, I sent you an email and i keep getting that your mail box is full. I just want to know if there is some way to delete the myspace field since i've mention above its stuck even if the mod isn't installed.
