Blocks Not Displaying Correctly

Hi, new here and have to confess to being a total noob with php etc, but I have managed to follow instruction and seemingly successfully install PHP Nuke 8.1 and have a working website.

I recently installed a few blocks I downloaded, namely the Nuke Sentinel Block, installation went through fine with no issues, however when I try display the block as a left, right or centre, it just doesn't seem to display right.

Only registered users can see links on this board!

I have tried changing the theme to see if that was causing some kind of issue, but no luck, I don't feel too confident about opening up php files myself and butchering them and unfortunately none of my friends know php to be able to help me.

Could anyone take a look and give me some advice please.

Thanks

Sorry to double post, can I just add that it's not just with the sentinel block I have had issues, I had an extended user info block that had the same problem, the text in the block displays wrong.

Thanks again

if what you mean is that you are getting text like this _AB_HAVECAUGHT 0 _AB_SHAMEFULHACKERS then you need to add the corresponding defines to your current language. English in this case.

open up your rootdir/language/lang-english.php and add this before the closing ?>

Code:

define('_AB_HAVECAUGHT','NukeSentinel™ has caught');
define('_AB_SHAMEFULHACKERS','shameful hackers');

Yes, that fixed it!! Thank you Razz

I will have a go fixing the other blocks using this method but changing it to fit them.

Sounds like you were just missing some Sentinel language files. Try reuploading the files with a good FTP client like FileZilla (free on SourceForge.net).
