Topic: Error Log

[~Alex]

hey guys. i'll admit i don't normally look at my error log, because it's confusing. 

i know i probably shouldn't have any errors, but i get them all the time, and since i don't normally have a lot of time to look, i just skip it. today however, i'm curious if you can help me resolve some of these little issues that my site apparently experiences in the background.

to start with, i have a custom menu set up and i guess that has affected one of the templates. see below for examples.

:

8: Use of undefined constant Video - assumed 'Video'
File:   /home/xxxxx/public_html/xxxxx/Themes/default/SendTopic.template.php   (main_above sub template - eval?)
Line: 521

:

8: Use of undefined constant Talk - assumed 'Talk'
File:   /home/xxxxx/public_html/xxxxx/Themes/default/SendTopic.template.php   (main_above sub template - eval?)
Line: 512

:

8: Use of undefined constant Downloads - assumed 'Downloads'
  File:   /home/xxxxx/public_html/xxxxx/Themes/default/SendTopic.template.php   (main_above sub template - eval?)
  Line: 524
as stated, this is just the beginning, but any and all help is very appreciated. if you've got suggestions, please post them.

thank you.

Show me the code for your custom menu

hi ccbtimewiz. it's right off the index.template file.

:

                               // Show the [forum] button.
                                    echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='forum' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="http://www.urlhere/index.php?board=1.0"><span>' , Talk , '</span></a></li>';

                                // Show the [gallery] button.
                                        echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='gallery' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="', $scripturl, '?action=mgallery"><span>' , 'Gallery' , '</span></a></li>';

                                // Show the [video] button.
                                        echo ' <li><a href="http://www.urlhere/index.php?board=3.0"><span>' , Video , '</span></a></li>';

                                // Show the [downloads] button.
                                        echo ' <li><a href="http://www.urlhere/index.php?page=140"><span>' , Downloads , '</span></a></li>';

                                // Show the [radio] button.
                                        echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='radio' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="', $scripturl, '?action=radio" target="_blank"><span>' , 'Radio' , '</span></a></li>';

                              // The [calendar]!
                    if ($context['allow_calendar'])
                        echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='calendar' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="', $scripturl, '?action=calendar"><span>' , $txt['calendar24'] , '</span></a></li>';

                              // Show the [help] button.
                                        echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='help' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="', $scripturl, '?action=help"><span>' , $txt[119] , '</span></a></li>';
i did this some time ago, some without guidance, so have mercy on me for any coding faults you may see.

I thought so. You're defining constants when you shouldn't be. Replace it with this:

:

                               // Show the [forum] button.
                                    echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='forum' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="http://www.urlhere/index.php?board=1.0"><span>Talk</span></a></li>';

                                // Show the [gallery] button.
                                        echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='gallery' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="', $scripturl, '?action=mgallery"><span>Gallery</span></a></li>';

                                // Show the [video] button.
                                        echo ' <li><a href="http://www.urlhere/index.php?board=3.0"><span>Video</span></a></li>';

                                // Show the [downloads] button.
                                        echo ' <li><a href="' . $scripturl . '?page=140"><span>Downloads</span></a></li>';

                                // Show the [radio] button.
                                        echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='radio' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="', $scripturl, '?action=radio" target="_blank"><span>Radio</span></a></li>';

                              // The [calendar]!
                    if ($context['allow_calendar'])
                        echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='calendar' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="', $scripturl, '?action=calendar"><span>' , $txt['calendar24'] , '</span></a></li>';

                              // Show the [help] button.
                                        echo '<li><a' , $current_action=='help' ? ' class="current"' : '' , ' href="', $scripturl, '?action=help"><span>' , $txt[119] , '</span></a></li>';
