Quick Mod tools not working

It worked for me on prosilver when I tried it, that was before I tried it on subsilver2

[sknight]

I would change back to prosilver but i like the look of subsilver and the way the portals are in boxed headings. Could anyone recommend another template I could try?

[admin (no pm's please)]

I'd much rather we established how to get subSilver2 to break, so we can stop it breaking!

Does the problem pop up when you use ONLY those portals?

I have put them in with no problem, so something tells me there is another problem.

Can you give a quick list of modifications you've made to your template?

didn't 3.0.5 get template changes, zudane says he just tried on subSilver2 and they worked, so surely that's up to date, but would a copied template still be the older version as it's folder is not listed as subSilver2?

A copy would be of the version around when the copy took place.

So tests should be done on a new copy. Good point

should  go make a new copy and try that then?

just tried a new copy and used the howtodoit bb3 to put in the portal on the left, entering the codes under overall header and averall footer as described and when I logged out the login page wouldnt let me login and this was under the announcement header

Notice: NO_SEARCH in /home/httpd/vhosts/ford.myfunforum.org/httpdocs/phpBB3/myffcms/com_search.php on line 264

That might explain the problem, but only Admin would know...

The link you just gave is myfunforum, while the link to your forum is a myfastforum

Perhaps it's not the template, but just a problem with the search looking in the wrong section and that is messing it up?

Trouble is "used the howtodoit bb3 to put in the portal on the left" does not make things clear.

I can and have tried to deal with the reported "NO SEARCH" error display, but I don't really know which portal caused this. A report saying I put {MYFF.WHATEVERITWAS} into overall_template.html would be shorter and clearer.

Also to get picky we are trying to figure out the quick mod issue here and this report is about another problem and hence for clarity should be in another thread, that might seem a severe attitude   but when we are trying to nail something tricky it does help if we are focused on topic.

I am not sure why but when I removed the login portal it fixed the quick mod issue. Shall I start another thread then for this problem?

Sorry it went off topic it kind of just wondered into this other problem and I didnt think.

[admin (no pm's please)]

This thread is about the quick mod issue.

So are we saying that if we take a copy of subSilver2 and add the MYFF.LOGIN portal to overall_header.tpl we see the quickmod issue?

Yes, I was advised to try taking it out and when I did the mod tools worked fine.
