Blank screen
I'm getting a blank screen, when following the "Signature Settings" link in profile/edit.
The settings link points to profile/signature, and when I change it to something else (like profile/siggggnature), I get a normal 404 screen.
So that tells me the method is available in the controller. But no matter what I've tried, I just can't get it to return anything but a white screen.
How do I debug this?
I'm using Vanilla v2.1a10

Yes, and it has been fixed in there for some time.

I found the solution myself:
In Signatures/views/class.signatures.plugin.php:70 i changed ProfileController_Signature_Create(&$Sender) to ProfileController_Signature_Create($Sender).
Then it works.
But I'm not exactly sure why this was necessary ... ?
objects are passed by reference in php5. Some people don't know this.
grep is your friend.
So, because $Sender is an object, there's no need to use the explicit pass by reference operator, or what?
I don't quite understand your answer ...
I'm unsure about my solution, because I can see the plugin was tested and approved - yet I have to make this change to make it work.
This has me wondering, if there's something else wrong with my code.
I had the same problem and the same change fixed it
Perhaps a code change is in order? Is the plugin on Github?
Yes, and it has been fixed in there for some time.
