What have you done before the problem was there?


What have you already tryed to solve the problem?


Description and Message
Is it possible to have more than one copy of the same module on the portal? I would like to have more than 1 copy of the "Links" module so I can have a different type of link in each copy.

Thanks

Hi
All you need is a second link module, a second module I had created some time ago.
You can download it here: Portal Link Menü

Hi,
I've installed your module but it doesn't appear in the drop-down lists to enable me to select it.

[Kirk]

This module is only for right or left, you need to add the right or left this module.

[Knobblywobbly]

It doesn't appear anywhere, left or right.

I even copied the files manually as I use the rock n' roll style, but it still doesn't appear available.

[Kirk]

Do you also have the template files in root/styles/rock 'n roll/template/portal/modules uploaded?
Give me a link to your forum

Edit:
I have found the error.
Jump to: root/language/en/mods/portal_link_menu_module.php
Find:

Code: Select all

'M_MENU' => 'menu',

Replace with:

Code: Select all

'M_LINK_MENU' => 'Link Menu'

Upload this file back to the directory
root/language/en/mods/portal_link_menu_module.php

[Knobblywobbly]

Thank you. I've done the change as you suggested, but now when I try and add a module I get this:

Have you saved it in the correct encoding?
UTF-8 without BOM
https://www.phpbb.com/kb/article/phpbb3 ... thout-bom/

Copy this file and save it under the name portal_link_menu_module.php
Upload this file to root/language/en/mods/portal

Code: Select all

Thanks Kirk,

Shouldn't it be uploaded to root/language/en/mods/portal/ ?

I've used Notepad++ and saved it without BOM. I've uploaded it, but now when I try to add a module all I get is a completely empty screen.

Download the entire module again down, I changed the language file.

When I try to upload I get:

"The module you are trying to upload seems to be corrupted."

[Kirk]

Before you load the module again high, delete the old files.
You can also just upload the language file via FTP.

I uploaded the language file - still get empty screen.

I remove the old files and tried to upload the module - still get the message about the module being corrupt.

[Kirk]

I sorry because an error in it, please dowload the file again.

[Knobblywobbly]

Ok, I can now upload the file but when I select "add module" I still get a blank screen.
