New User - Very frustrated- need help!

[hurricane41]

I have tried about everything I can think of from reading other posts with similar errors. The error I got when I tried to log in to admin was this:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function zen_check_url_get_terms() in /home/brantle2/public_html/ordernowhtm/admin/includes/languages/english/index.php on line 30

I tried unzipping my files again, but that didn't work. I checked the index.php and didn't see any extra characters - but maybe I am not looking at it right?

Here is what my index.php shows for line 30 - I didn't change anything on this line - so not sure what the error is? Maybe too many )'s ? Any ideas?

if ( ($category_depth == 'products') || (zen_check_url_get_terms()) ) {

Thanks for any help you can provide -

zen_check_url_get_terms should be declared in includes/functions/functions_general.php.

Thanks Afo - Here is what I found in the includes/functions/functions_general.php file regarding zen_check_url_get_terms


// check to see if database stored GET terms are in the URL as $_GET parameters
function zen_check_url_get_terms() {
global $db;
$zp_sql = "select * from " . TABLE_GET_TERMS_TO_FILTER;
$zp_filter_terms = $db->Execute($zp_sql);
$zp_result = false;
while (!$zp_filter_terms->EOF) {
if (isset($_GET[$zp_filter_terms->fields['get_term_name']]) && zen_not_null($_GET[$zp_filter_terms->fields['get_term_name']])) $zp_result = true;
$zp_filter_terms->MoveNext();
}
return $zp_result;

What is this telling me? Is there something I am supposed to change in this file? Or the index file? Sorry - I have no clue what I am doing and am getting confused.

Try re-uploading the admin directory and see if that cures the problem.

I uploaded the admin file again, but I am still getting the same error. Any other ideas of what I might be able to do?

Thanks!

I really need some help with this site, and I don't think anyone has experienced the error I have had (very limited response, and nothing has worked). I am new to this and to FTP transfers. I THOUGHT I correctly edited the index.htm but now when I go to log in to admin, I can't. I get the following message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function zen_check_url_get_terms() in /home/brantle2/public_html/ordernowhtm/admin/includes/languages/english/index.php on line 30

I did not make any changes to this line. I have deleted all the files I had, and redownloaded zencart to my computer and uploaded them, however, I am still getting this message.

I don't know what to do or how to fix it. I have been working on this for hours and am VERY frustrated that there is no one to call, and am not getting any help here.

Can someone please advise what I need to do to be able to log back in to admin? Or, is there anyone I can call who can assist me? I have GOT to get this site up and running in a matter of days and don't know if I need to uninstall and reinstall? But, I am hesitant to do that, because I am not sure what created the error to begin with -
Thank you for any help you can provide.

/includes/languages/english/index.php
is an entirely different file from
/admin/includes/languages/english/index.php

... and it seems you've got yours mixed up. The one in your admin isn't the one that's supposed to be in your admin.

[hurricane41]

How do I fix that and get the right file where it needs to be? I am sorry but I don't have much experience with ftp's and I really need someone to walk me through how to fix this so I don't mess it up any more than it already is.
Thanks

Do you have Zen Cart unzipped on your local computer?

[hurricane41]

Yes zencart is unzipped on my computer
