Title: AdManagment shows error on install
Post by: Dasher on February 11, 2019, 10:29:37 PM
I recently did a fresh install of a forum and am trying to add AdManagement again, but it's showing a lot of errors.

I'm running SMF 2.0.15 and AdManagment from feb 5th this year (current version on SMF site).






The links/downloads mod was installed later, so the errors are there with just SMF and Classifieds installed. As the site is already running with Classifieds, I do not want to uninstall to see if this is the issue.

Is the only solution to do a manual install, or is this problem more common and related to something else?



Thank you for your time.

BTW I checked file permissions for the files and /core dir and set those to 666 to be sure, but no results.

Are you using the core theme? If not it is safe to ignore.

For custom themes you may have to apply some of the file edits manually.

Hi vb!

I'm using another theme (Outline from Dziner). When I proceed anyway, the top ad will always make the entire page link to the ad url, or make every text into a url. I thought that mught be related to the errors, so I uninstalled and tried again a few times. The Dziner themes are no longer supported or updated, so it might be down to the theme then. I'll test another theme and see what happens.

the dirs /theme and /theme/lazarus have rights set to 666, as well as each of the files that is listed in that error message.

Your a tag isn't closed should be.
For other themes you click install then make changes manually to the theme files that failed
