Shape 5

Hi,

my logs on the server are quickly filling up with the following errors:

PHP message: PHP Notice:  Undefined variable: suffix_expand5 in /home/..../domains/..../public_html/portal/templates/design_control/vertex/position_layouts.php on line 247

(replaced my domain with dots in above)

Any idea how this can be solved ?

Thanks!

Hello,

Do you have a module with with extra spaces in the module class suffix?

Not that I'm aware off, is there a quick way to check for extra spaces ?

Actually when doing some further research it looks like it is caused by the -inset suffix. I've 3 modules on my homepage with this suffix and did get the error 3 times with every page visit. When removing the -inset from one of the modules only 2 errors are left.

Hi,

anyone has any idea ?

Why is the -inset causing the PHP message: PHP Notice:  Undefined variable: suffix_expand5 in /home/..../domains/..../public_html/portal/templates/design_control/vertex/position_layouts.php on line 247 ?

Hello,

I am not able to replicate this problem on any site that I am running, and I have full error reporting on with an -inset module present. Are you sure you are running Vertex 4.2?

I have also reviewed that file and I don't see any problems with it. The variable is defined at line 181:

$suffix_expand5 = $suffix_expand[5];

Also, that entire area of code will only run if you have a space in your module class. Make sure you have the module set as "-inset" with no space before or after:

if(strrpos($suffix," ") > 1) {

Finally this is just a warning message, it is not something that will effect the functionality of the site. You can turn off these messages in the Joomla global configuration under Server/Error Reporting - Set to "none".

Hi,

Yes, I'm running Vertex 4.2

There is no space in the module class for or after.

Actually looking further at the code, $suffix_expand5 only seems to be defined when there is an space as it comes after line 174:  if(strrpos($suffix," ") > 1) {

but this if is closed on line 247 and goes into an else if

} else if (strlen($suffix) == 6 && strrpos($suffix,"-") == 0 && ctype_xdigit($suffix_expand5)) {
         $suffix_color = $suffix;
         $suffix = "";
      }

and here it goes wrong and the  $suffix_expand5 is not defined due to else if and this code is run when there is no space

So just guessing here that the } on line 247 is placed wrong and probably should be around line 251 after above code part ??

Hello,

Ah, yes the bracket is just in the wrong location. Try the attached one.

Yep, that solved it  8)
