Hello Folks,

It seems smartfaq 1.04 also doesn't work in my current XOOPS config. I made a q&a, and now I get a blank screen when I surf to the faq section on my site (http://www.nvshv.nl).
I put on php debug:
NoticeOnly variable references should be returned by reference in /www/htdocs/hellup/class/module.textsanitizer.php on line 519

Notice

All errors

Now, besides I don't know what this all means, it is strange that the debug info show similarity with a previous post of me, in which I say that CBB 3.07 also gives blank screens.

No I'm beginning to think that the problem is perhaps not the in 1 or 2 modules, but in xoops, or my xoops?
My site uses:
-XOOPS 2.0.15 + new form.php + editors and Frameworks (latest versions)
-smartfaq 1.04
-news 1.44
-multimenu 1.82
-newbb 1.12 (my old backup)
-liaise 1.26
-wf-section 2.06
-wf-links 1.03b
-piCal 0.89
-wf-channel 1.07
-xc gal 2.03

Server:
-Apache 1.3.34
-PHP 4.4.0
-MySQL 4.0.15


Any help would be appreciated.

Thx and greetings,

It's the fatal error that's causing the blank page. Can you paste the code from line 549 of /smartfaq/class/faq.php ? Someone could probably help you then.

My guess, without seeing the code or knowing anything about the module, is that it's specific to your php version.

give it a try there

You're right irmtfan!!
Playing with the settings solved the blank screen problem.
Still: Can't post new Q&A's. They do not appear in any part of admin section, EXCEPT in the module summary in the admin index. There I see the number of Q&A's increase on each post of a Q&A.

When I post a Q&A I get a message that the database is succesfully adjusted, and the follwing message in PHP debug:

Fatal errorCall to a member function on a non-object in /www/htdocs/hellup/modules/smartfaq/include/displayfaqs.php on line 52

That is indeed the problem: displaying the (new) faqs.
Line 52 of modules/smartfaq/include/displayfaqs.php shows:

echo "<td class='even' align='left'>" $categoryObj->name() . "</td>";

What can I do about this?

Thx in advance and greetings,

Don't know if this will help but the "Smart" peeps have released an updated version of the module.

It's labelled as v1.08 and its still a beta release but they sound quite "bullish" about it being very close to a full release version and it having sorted out quite a few bugs. I'm going to give it a try.
