edited October 2006 in Vanilla 1.0 Help
At first: sry for my english! I use standard theme and Jazzman Style 1.0. I installed some extensions succesfully. I have almost finished with customizing my forum. Yesterday i decided to insert a imagelogo in the banner by copying this line in the setting (that says: html is allowed) <img src="http://www.pathtoimage.jpg" /> After saving i got an error message Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /www/htdocs/databasename/forum/conf/settings.php on line 43 I checked out the settings.php on the lines 40 to 45, but i cant figure out what is wrong. EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT: CHECK OUT MY SECOND COMMENT ON THIS DISCUSSION; I POSTET THE WRONG SETTINGS.PHP ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ } } if (!$Allowed) header('location:'.GetUrl($Configuration, 'index.php')); // 1. DEFINE VARIABLES AND PROPERTIES SPECIFIC TO THIS PAGE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How i can undo the changing of the banner? I cant open my website anymore. I only see the error message and thats it. Thx for Help

    That doesn't look like an ordinary conf/settings.php file. Can't you find anything where you put the "< img src..." in the settings.php? Also, I see two "}" chars.. maybe that's your problem?
  • oh, my mistake i postet the wrong settings.php here is the conf/settings.php line 42 to 44 _____________________________________________________ $Configuration['ANNOUNCE_DISAPPEAR'] = '1'; $Configuration['ANNOUNCE_TIME'] = '8'; $Configuration['ANNOUNCE_TEXT'] = '060'; ______________________________________________________ i dont understand! This lines has nothing to do with my banner?! i even changed my bannertitle in this settings.php on line 17 imgscr tag doesnt exist anymore i switched to my old bannertitle, but problem is still there ________________________________________ $Configuration['BANNER_TITLE'] = 'tdkapulie; _____________________________________________
  • You need another closing ' after your title name.
    e.g.
    $Configuration['BANNER_TITLE'] = 'tdkapulie';
  • i have still the same problem whatever I will install everything new from beginning. But could you tell me how i can make Backups, before installing Extensions and change the settings? Do i have to backup the database? The whole vanilla directory? Or only some files? Thx for your fast support.
  • What is there to backup if you havent installed extensions or settings? I guess if you just wanted to avoid having to run the install script you could make a backup of all the files under your root vanilla folder. The main time you should be worried about backing up is when you have a big active forum with a valuable database though...
