0-2 using EM

Post by leejay »

The first thing I tried didn't even show up in the Admin. The second seemed to install everything but had one error
Critical Error

FIND FAILED: In file [templates/subSilver/overall_header.tpl] could not find:

<td><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/logo_phpBB.gif" border="0" alt="{L_INDEX}" vspace="1" /></a></td>

MOD script line #209 :: FAQ :: Report


Any suggestions?

BTW what I'm trying to install is a "Change Forum Banner" from Admin mod.

The error is what it says.
It looked in your overall_header.tpl and didn't find that exact line.
You just need to make a note of the edits to that file and do them by hand instead.

Thanks for not being too hard on this noob. Many of the post I read people seem annoyed by people asking questions.

the first of many mis-steps I made when I started playing with phpBB, is hacking the default template.

Make a copy and go through the small amount of work required to change the name references in the template files. Hack the copy, not the original.

:D

For future reference, the way to fix this problem would be this:

OPEN:
install.txt (or whatever the install file is named)

FIND:

Code: Select all

<td><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/logo_phpBB.gif" border="0" alt="{L_INDEX}" vspace="1" /></a></td>
REPLACE WITH:

Code: Select all

{U_INDEX}
Then save, upload and install with EM.
