One puzzling issue.. please help!

[121webconsultancy]

Hi

I've just taken on a Zen Cart for a client that was developed by somebody else and left in a bit of a mess to say the least. However, I'm close to getting everything sorted out apart from one puzzling issue. Every page that is running off 'define pages editor' is showing a heading or page title of 'Who's Online' ...

See: www.bonnefete.co.uk/index.php - where the 'main page' has a heading of 'Who's Online'.. if you then hit Search you will see 'Who's Online' in the page title and Contact Us has 'Who's Online' midway down the page (I'm not sure what is supposed to be here?) .. and also on All Products.. sure enough 'Who's Online' appears as the page heading!

I'm stumped as to why this is appearing.. I think I have looked at all the appropriate files and I still can't find where this is coming from.

Does anybody have any ideas please!?..

Thanks in advance.

Steve

This looks odd ... but can you go to your Admin and look in the Tools ... Developers Tool Kit ... and in the bottom input box type in:

s Online

Yes that is:
s<space>online

Select from the Dropdown the Catalog ...

What files come up with: Who's Online defined in them ... most likely it will look something like:

define('BLAH_BLAH_BLAH', Who\'s Online');

What do you find?

Hi Linda

I have already done this and found no relevant files. All I get is:

/public_html/includes/init_includes/init_special_funcs.php
Line #15 : * require the whos online functions and update
/public_html/includes/languages/english/checkout_success.php
Line #18 : define('TEXT_THANKS_FOR_SHOPPING', 'Thanks for shopping with us online!');
/public_html/includes/languages/english/create_account_success.php
Line #25 : define('TEXT_ACCOUNT_CREATED', 'Congratulations! Your new account has been successfully created! You can now take advantage of member privileges to enhance your online shopping experience with us. If you have <small><strong>ANY</strong></small> questions about the operation of this online shop, please email the <a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US) . '">store owner</a>.<br /><br />A confirmation has been sent to the provided email address. If you have not received it within the hour, please <a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US) .

/public_html/includes/languages/english/whos_online.php
Line #22 : define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Who\'s Online');

Line #36 : define('TEXT_NUMBER_OF_CUSTOMERS', 'Currently there are %s customers online');


No joy there!....

Any further ideas?

Many thanks,

Steve

Steve... in the page source it's coming up with:-

<h1 id="indexDefaultHeading">Who's Online</h1>

Try doing a developer toolkit search for indexDefaultHeading

/public_html/includes/languages/english/whos_online.php
Line #22 : define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Who\'s Online');

That is your problem. Looks like someone has uploaded admin/includes/languages/english/whos_online.php to includes/languages/english by mistake. The correct includes/languages/english/whos_online.php has a different set of defines in it.

Your best bet is to download all the files and use something like winmerge to compare them to a clean base installation. You will then be able to see what else has been done wrong.

Regards,
Christian.

Excellent observation Christian! and 100% correct advice... if this glaring mistake exists, there are likely to be others. A thorough "laundry" through webmerge is essential, I think.

[Ajeh]

Yes, this is the problem I was looking for, as CJPinder has pointed out:

/public_html/includes/languages/english/whos_online.php
Line #22 : define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Who\'s Online');

That file does not contain that line ...

Either you have overwritten the file with the one from the Admin or you have added that define statement to your existing one ...

If you have not "intended" to do either, please reload, from a clean install the files:
/includes/languages/english/whos_online.php
/admin/includes/languages/english/whos_online.php

This should correct the problem that you are having ...

Thank you so much! CJPinder - you rock. Brilliant

Nervously I took a look at the olde version of the site, worried that perhaps I had made this mistake in my uploading.. but alas the problem exists on that version also, so it was a mistake that came with the site. Having now simply replaced the offending files with fresh versions, all is well.

Thank you also to Ajeh and Schoolboy for your time and input. Very much appreciated guys.
