Not so easy populate 2.7.2

[PureGeek]

Hi I've been trying to install easy populate and I've gotten to step #3 For adding link to the Admin. I keep getting this error

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CLASS in /home/mysigngi/public_html/shop/admin/includes/boxes/catalog.php on line 26

 

Line 26 is the exact line of the issue. I've checked the code twice and here is what it looks like in the file.

 

'<a href="' . tep_href_link('easypopulate.php',",'NONSSL').'" class="menuBoxContentLink">Easy Populate</a><br>'.

 

I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong, can someone help me.

Thanks

The line of code that goes in catalog box is valid code but it may not work with your catalog file. You will need to past that whole file here for someone to be able to see what the problem is. By the way, you should be using version 2.76 by Surfalot.

Hiya Jack, and thanks for taking a look at my issue (I never have problems, just issues) and here is the file.

Once I removed the line of code it all went back to working just great.

Oh and by the way can u pass the link to Surfalot.

Thanks

You need to post the code with the change you make in it. Otherwise there is no way to see the mistake.

Ok Jack, here goes. I'm sorry that I couldn't get back here sooner. I included the line of code here, and I'm still getting this error.

 

ERROR

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CLASS in /home/mysigngi/public_html/shop/admin/includes/boxes/catalog.php on line 26

 

I color coded the code so you'd know where it is in the file.

 

Any help would be great, thanks.

Try changing this

'<a href="' . tep_href_link('easypopulate.php',",'NONSSL').'" class="menuBoxContentLink">Easy Populate</a><br>'.

to this

'<a href="' . tep_href_link('easypopulate.php', '', 'NONSSL') . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">Easy Populate</a><br>' .

Hey! That worked, or at least there is a link there. I can see how you changed the file, but I don't understand how that affected it. If you have a moment could you tell me how that changed it.

Once again thanks a bunch. We just got Vista at our office and I'm getting tons of calls about "Where is the identities?"

Sandy :rolleyes:

In this section

'easypopulate.php', '',

the '', mine is two single quotes (apostrophes) but yours had one double quote.
