Did you install the beta version? If you did then that maybe why you're getting errors. The BETA versions are for the advanced developers.

If you installed the standard version I doubt you'd come into any errors

at a guess this is though

This one should work ok

Yea its the standard one iv got iv just checked, i tried to av a look at the coding earlier but nothing seemed to work, so i gave up as i dont wanna mess things up so i put it back as it was!!

Ok, well Nightrider will know what "Cannot redeclare multi_bbcode()" means...

I wanna know too Laughing

~^Karen^~ · Nov 26, 2006

lol

Nightrider · Sep 25, 2004

The reason why this is happening is because the includes/bbcode.php file has been included twice. This MOD adds an include for the bbcode.php file to the index.php file. So try this and see if it corrects your problem...

OPEN
index.php

FIND

Thats sorted i did it on my live forum coz i had problems on my test forum, i did summat cant remember what though, coz i thought summat was up with the forum and it turned out to be just my server coz nothing would work on my live forum neither, but i get this error on my test forum, iv tried to sort it, but i may have made things worse, so be prepared lol:

~^Karen^~ · Nov 26, 2006

wohooooooo i sorte dit myself lol!! I'm getting good at this!!!

Its a bit of a shame that the acp announcement mod or the news block dont show up all the forum pages, it would be pretty cool of it wasnt just the index page, wonder if anyone has thought of that lol

Nightrider · Sep 25, 2004

If you want this to display on every page rather than just the index page, you could probably remove the code added to the index.php and index_body.tpl files and add it to the page_header.php and overall_header.tpl files instead. That would make it so that this is a Global Announement MOD. I can help you with that if you need assistance...

ah cool i could do that, think it should be quite simple, il av a go at it maybe after the weekend as im a bit busy until then! I like trying new things out too! Still cant get over how i managed to fix problems out myself earlier lol, im getting good at finding them now though!!
