Problem with my tpl_footer.php file

[rstevenson]

I've probably forgotten something simple...

I have a custom table at the bottom of all my site pages (see the wholesale link below) that holds the SSL certificate and a few other bits. This has been working fine for the past year and a half. The table code is in includes/templates/mytemplate/common/tpl_footer.php

My Thawte certificate was up for renewal and I switched to GlobalSign. I got their code for displaying the seal and put it into the tpl_footer.php file, replacing what was there for the Thawte seal.

The new seal displays properly on the main page, but the Thawte seal is still displaying on all other pages on the site. As far as I can figure out, this should not be happening. The single tpl_footer.php file in my custom template folder is the only one (I checked my site backups) that was used before to display the Thawte seal.

(The template_default/common folder also has a tpl_footer.php, but of course that is being overridden by the one in my custom folder. And in case you were wondering (I was!) I just checked and it does not contain any customized code -- that one is still the stock one from the original ZC install.)

So, are there any bright bulbs out there that can throw some light on this odd problem? I'm feeling a little dim right now.

Have you tried the Developers Toolkit (bottom field, All files) and searched for "thawte"?

Hi Doc,

I didn't use that method. I searched on my local copies using a multi-file search capable text editor. No results other than the expected. And I just redid the search using the dev toolkit with the same results. It finds only the ../mytemplate/common/tpl_footer.php file.

Just a sec, I'm going to try putting the proper code into the one in the defualt template too, though it shouldn't matter. ... ...

Nope, that didn't help.

What could it be? Database caching? But why every page except the main one?

I have to fix this quick because my Thawte cert expires today -- probably at midnight. Yikes!

Waaaiiittt a minute. If it's finding that file using "Thawte" as the search term... ...

(Sometimes it takes a second for the penny to drop.)

But when I navigate to that file in my FTP browser and edit it, it has the new code in it.

Aaaacckk!

I thought it was something simple. There are TWO places in that file that I need to insert the code.

Thanks Doc. I owe you a cold one if (when!) you get to Nova Scotia.
