    • Get rid of phplayers errors in absE Theme?

    Posted by johnelle

    I installed the absE theme on my site and am getting a "phplayers not available" message and I assume the menus are being displayed as intended. I looked up this package and dumped it on my machine. Near as I can tell its a dev library and its not clear now to "install" this so tikiwiki can use it. Nothing in the documentation that came with the theme.

    How do I get this working?

    Ok I guess I misssed it when I scanned the lengthy feature list. Its not getting the phplayers not available error anymore but now it gets LayersMenu Error: setMenuStructureString: empty string.

    Think I may stay away from this theme. Seems to be problematic.

    Thanks for the pointer to the Smarties site.

    There's nothing problematic about the theme. Those PHP Layers messages will appear with any theme if a) Tiki finds a PHP Layers menu tag in a template but PHP Layers are not turned on, and b) there isn't a menu id set already that matches the id that is specified in the PHP Layers menu tag.

    I specifically put the PHP Layers menu tag in the Site Identity custom code in the absE theme so that it could be turned on and configured (menu id specified) by the user without the template editing that was necessary before. As far as I can tell, if you got those error messages, it's because the custom code was activated but the compontents it was expecting weren't turned on or configured. I'll have another look at the documentation to see if the process can be explained better.

    Thanks working now except it gets a LayersMenu Error: setMenuStructureString: empty string error now. I think this theme is problematic.

    Make sure you have selected a valid menu ID.
