Anyone?

Hi! I only accidentally found your topic, because it was marked solved earlier. So it did not show up on my "support radar".
I have marked it "unsolved", so I will see it in the future.
You are welcome to mark this issue "solved" or "unsolved" at any time.
Which version of SMF are you using now?

[msgoodygal]

Thanks Angelina! 

I'm running version 1.1.13.

I wasn't aware that it was marked as being resolved, the thousands of error entries on my page for this prove otherwise, lol.

I appreciate the help!

[AngelinaBelle]

Probably the topic got marked solved about the time you reported

Yup...  solved for sure and rockin on my site.....

I can understand your frustration with the problem.
This code is not part of SimplePortal. SimplePortal doesn't have a function template_extramenu.

That code must be there as part of some mod or custom theme. Presumably, that language string was supposed to be found in one of SMF's language files, or else in a new language file added by the theme or mod. I just don't know any more than that.
* Do you have this problem when you use the default theme (;theme=1)?
* If not, which theme is causing the problem?
Thanks

Well, the details are in the history of my posts here...

What had happened, was I had installed Simple Portal, only I had no button linking to the forums.  Someone from this forum helped me out, and gave me the code to write to my file so that I could use Simple Portal.

So it's that button that must be causing the problem, that is the only customize button that I use.

[AngelinaBelle]

The fix will be straightforward, and it will not involve SimplePortal. It involves only your theme.
In your post http://simpleportal.net/index.php?topic=6485.msg37466#msg37466 you attached a copy of index.template.php, which included a function template_extramenu:

Code: (in function template_extramenu) [Select]

// This is main menu
function template_extramenu()
{
 global $context, $settings, $options, $scripturl, $txt;
 
 $enable_extramenu = true; // true or false
 
 if($enable_extramenu)
 {
  $extramenu = array(
   // Info   // Link
   'link 1'  => '<a href="#" title="Link Title">Link 1</a>',
   'link 2'   => '<a href="#" title="Link Title">Link 2</a>',
   );
 
 
  echo '
  <ul class="extramenu">
   <li><b>',$txt['extra_menu'],':</b></li>
   <li>' ,implode("</li><li> | </li><li>", $extramenu) ,'</li>
  </ul>';
 }
}Nathaniel did not make any changes to the part of the file that includes $txt['extra_menu'].
So I did a little research. I looked at your site. I see you are using the Antep theme.
I downloaded the Antep theme zip file. In the zip file I found a file, meant to go in the theme's Languages directory, called Modifications.english.php. There is also a Turkish version available.  That file contains:

Code: [Select]

<?php
global $txt;
$txt['extra_menu'] = 'Extra Menu';
?>Do you still have that file in the Antep theme's Languages directory? Does it still contain $txt['extra_menu'] = 'Extra Menu';?
If that file is missing -- put it back. You can get a new copy from the zip file. If that file is there, but is missing that line, put that line back.  Then, of course, you will want to change that value to whatever you want.
Your site looks fine without it, so perhaps you want to put nothing at all between the to ' marks.

[msgoodygal]

Woooo!   I think that is exactly the problem.  When looking at the current modifications.english.php file, there was nothing in it.  So, I downloaded the theme again, and uploaded the modifications file back to my site. 

So far, the error logs are clean, where as there had been almost 500 pages of that exact same error, received over the last 2 weeks.

THANK YOU!!!!!

I really appreciate the help!

I'm glad this problem is really solved this time.
Any mod (or, apparantly) theme is likely to use that file for its custom strings, so you may have to keep an eye on it.
