I have some rules in my previous forum, and I'd like to add them in this forum.

But the rules are in HTML, could I use HTML in the lang_main.php file?

Spoiler: [ Show ]


My question is because a while ago I changed some text in this file, just a few changes:

From:
Quote:
'Agree_under_13' => 'Estoy de acuerdo con estos términos y condiciones y tengo menos de 13 años de edad',
'Agree_over_13' => 'Estoy de acuerdo con estos términos y condiciones y tengo más de o exactamente 13 años de edad',

To:
Quote:
'Agree_under_13' => 'Estoy de acuerdo con estos términos y condiciones
'Agree_over_13' => 'Estoy de acuerdo con estos términos y condiciones',


And from:
Quote:
// These replace the %s in the above strings
'Auth_Anonymous_Users' => '<b>Usuarios invitados</b>',
'Auth_Registered_Users' => '<b>Usuarios registrados</b>',
'Auth_Self_Users' => '<b>Usuarios específicos</b>',
'Auth_Users_granted_access' => '<b>Usuarios con permisos especiales</b>',
'Auth_Moderators' => '<b>Moderadores</b>',
'Auth_Administrators' => '<b>Administradores</b>',

To:
Quote:
// These replace the %s in the above strings
'Auth_Anonymous_Users' => '<b>Usuarios invitados</b>',
'Auth_Registered_Users' => '<b>Usuarios registrados</b>',
'Auth_Self_Users' => '<b>Usuarios específicos</b>',
'Auth_Users_granted_access' => '<b>Usuarios con permisos </b>',
'Auth_Moderators' => '<b>Moderadores</b>',
'Auth_Administrators' => '<b>Administradores</b>',


And inmediately my forum shows this message at the top:
4645387004

I had to reset the changes and upload again this file... Maybe I don't know how to use FTP in the correct way. Or maybe I have to change this file from ACP... I don't know :oops:

Hi;

It seems you added a blank line before "<?php" at the beginning of the file, and that's where the error stems from.

Really? I didn't write anything in the file, just in those areas...

But I have to wait because I am moving my forum of hosting...

What program did you use to edit the file?

I'll use some online program to edit HTML. I have Dreamweaver in my laptop, but it is sick :| I'm using my tablet :mryellow:

It is possible the program added a newline at the beginning of the file.
Or it is possible it saved it with a "marker" (we call it "BOM" in programming), which is invisible but still present.

if you can change encoding, you need to pick "UTF8 without BOM".

Well, I didn't understand anything that you've said :lol: So sorry! My English is really bad, and don't understand technical words or something like that :|

Basically: Try to use a different program to edit language files.

You mean it will be better if I use different program than Dreamweaver, is it correct?

I don't know if Dreamweaver lets you edit PHP files correctly.

But do not use word / wordpad / program that have formatting. That breaks PHP.

I use Notepad++ and Dreamweaver both. It happens so rarely to me (white space) that when it does happen, it takes me by surprise.

And I agree, that is a white space add before the opening php tag or after the closing tag.

I've noticed that there are some blocks of the rules at ACP, right? Maybe I could make some changes through this area, not in the PHP files, what do you think?

I can try that too and see what happens. I have a local host server setup with like 5 IP installs on it. If I tear one up by trying something it is no big loss.

I'm adding this to my to do list today.
