so, there goes our index page.

[DeathMONGER]

so. im over at usfbf1942.com (/forums)

i tried to insert a block of coding into my index.php for the forums

it didnt work, so i went back and deleted it and uploaded the version without the coding block. but NOW its still dead! all the pages work except for the index page:
www.usfbf1942.com/forums/index.php

try, for example,http://www.usfbf1942.com/forums/forumdisplay.php

i dont know what to do. my only guess is that i accidentally deleted some of the forums' coding when i deleted the block i inserted.

i know exACTLY where the block was and there the problem must be, so maybe someone could take a look at my coding and see if i'm missing something? itd be so appreciated.

as for the suggestion, is there a way to auto back up those files, not just databases?
again sorry i posted this here, but the only troubleshooting links say to go to member forums, and the clan leader who bought the forums is away.

this is the error. the coding i inserted was right where my <!--***ERROR PRESENT HERE***--!> marker is near the bottom. (you may be wondering why i was putting the coding there at all...i was checkin somethin. im no good at vb obviously):

   $callink = '<a href="calendar.php?' . 

$vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "do=getinfo&amp;day=$day\">" . 

$vbphrase['holiday_title_' . $eventinfo['varname']] . "</a>";
                }
                else
                {
                    $callink = '<a href="calendar.php?' . 

$vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] .

ps* the coding block i was trying to add was a google adsense block. we put it on our home page and were gonna try putting it into the forums, of which being very new to VB i had no idea how to do. the only reason i inserted it in that random area was by accident, i was dealing with two index.php files (forum one and my homepage one) and mixed things up.



so sean, i donno if you have a copy of our index.php saved to your comp from wen u worked on it, and you cud just look for missing coding? otherwise i gotta wait for tdog (who has disapeared) to get his VB email/pw and set a ticket

*embarased face*

Hey there, Sean is MIA at the moment (because of work/moving houses) I'll get him to take a peek when he has a chance ... darn moving lol

[DeathMONGER]

haha asldkg.!

[Sean]

Seems u got it all sorted

Yeah i would recommend not adding any unwanted PHP into the vbulletin code, best to only add modifications via the templates if you dont know what u r doing.
