Topic: Did You MIss Your Activation Email printing twice in portal

[gietl]

SMF 1.1.11
SP 2.3.1
http://www.rmcb5.com

For guest users this appears twice both in the top nav and in the left User Info block.

I am running the portal home as standalone, just upgraded to 2.3.1, SMF is 1.1.11. Had the same issue with SP 2.3

I tried searching for this subject to no avail, if it is a repeat my apologies.

Check your Sources/Subs.php file and search for this:

Code: [Select]

$txt['welcome_guest_activate']

Are there 2 instances?

[gietl]

Thanks for the response, it's in there just once. It's only the portal though, because if you click Forum it does not happen anywhere outside the Portal.

Could there be something with the changes in index.php

I ask because while trying to get the standalone to work properly I mistakenly put the standalone file as index.php into the SMF directory and needed to manually recreate it. Yes we all make mistakes.

Anyway, I followed the manual instructions for that file, that is about the only thing I can think of.

Check your index.php to see if the following function is being called twice "setupThemeContext", that function should only be called once, that could be your problem.

If you are unsure what to do, then please attach your index.php file.

I do not see that function being called in the index.php under my forum root or my site root (which is the standalone file renamed index.php)

[gietl]

I found usages of setupThemeContext()

1 in SSI.psp

and the function its;f as well as a call to it in Subs.php

I am unable to find a reference to it anywhere.

However. I do know the standalone calls SSI.php, and does that call Subs.php as well? Might that cause any issue?

I'm not really getting anywhere with this minor issue, but would love to resolve it.

You are using an outdated version of PortalStandalone.php file.

Download PortalStandalone.php file which is in your forum root. Open it with a text editor and change the 'path/to/forum' code according to your forum. Then rename it to index.php and upload to your website root, replacing your current file.

Thank you for the response, I'm not sure that is the case as far as I can tell. I did it again just to try and there is no change. The version in the 2.3.1 package is the same as what I am posting below.

This is what is in my now index.php:

I see. It looks like this wasn't fixed in SMF 1.1.

Sources/Subs.php

Code: (Find) [Select]

// Get some news...

Code: (Replace) [Select]

static $loaded;
if (!empty($loaded))
return;
$loaded = true;

// Get some news...

Perfect! Thanks for looking into it and posting the solution! Everything else works great and I know that was pretty trivial.

I appreciate the help and the great mod.
