rabbitseffort Posted December 8, 2005 Posted December 8, 2005 Not real sure why this has happened, but in my admin all of my links are like a file name instead of simply catalof, orders, etc... here is a screenshot to show you what I mean Please help if ya can, what files should I look at? I looked at admin/index and it looks fine, what else?

AlanR Posted December 8, 2005 Posted December 8, 2005 Check to make sure that your languages file is in the correct place. Standard is: /catalog/admin/includes/languages/english.php It's like it's not finding the language definitions.

Thanks! As Alan replied, that is the issue, its not finding your language file for some reason. Double check to make sure you don't have a syntax error or other issue which is causing the file not to be included properly. Be well, Tina If you're not having fun you're not doing it right Teach a person to fish rather than give them a loaf of bread or however that saying goes.

Be well, Tina He probably overwrote admin/includes/languages/english.php with the one from /catalog. People manage to break things I've never broken so I have to creatively break an installation to figure out what they did.

Guest Posted December 8, 2005 Posted December 8, 2005 I had the same problem a few months back, I get it when i upload replacement files to the admin folder all at once, I never found out why it happened or how to fix I ended up doing a clean install and then uploading my replacement file 1 by 1 and it works OK for me now

An easy way to check would be to select another language at the top.

I compared my admin/index to a clean version of admim/index and they are identical. what other file in admin will be causing this? englich maybe?

This was it, I still have no idea how I did this, but after comparing the langueage files to clean versions this became very obvious!
