major BUG with gknews module

hi,

i'm having problems with the gknews module on my site. i have 6-7 instances of this module on my site, all of them working as expected, except for 2 instances which show the following error:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/pharmapo/public_html/modules/mod_gk_news/tmpl/default.php on line 19

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/pharmapo/public_html/modules/mod_gk_news/tmpl/default.php on line 31

what do these errors refer to?

i have these two instances configured exactly as the ones that are working. if i change the section from which the articles are drawn, then the errors disappear.

i'm not sure where lies the problem???

UPDATE!

the only specific thing i managed to notice is that the gknews modules that cause problems, draw their content from sections that have double digit IDs.

if a choose a section with a single digit ID, the same GKNews module no longer throws an error.

on the other hand, every new section that I create has double digit ID, so that means that i will not be able to use GKNews with newly created sections.

Please look into this problem, this is a pretty serious BUG! I firmly believe that this double digit ID situation is the cause of the problem.

Hello Gavick Team!!!

have you had the chance to verify this bug?

Hi

Please befort the lines which generates this errors add a condition chaecking if the param for foreach is an array.

Like this:

Code: Select all

if( is_array( $name_of_the_param_here ) ) $name_of_the_param_here = array();


I have the same problem how can i solve this?

well this does not work! it only throws in more code lines.

besides as i can see in the code the params are already explicitly defined as arrays!

this forum support is terribly slow and inefficient. this is not the way a paid support is supposed to work. i'm highly disappointed!!!

Hi

Please send me ftp access details. I got to make something wrong.

Hi

I have done it

This problem occures when there is only one section choosen for the module. The solution is to use the attached file instead.

I made all section id's with single digit and module works fine after that when i enabled 2 or more gk_news module it gives that error

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare toggle() (previously declared in /home/dpudorg/public_html/modules/mod_gk_news/tmpl/default.php:38) in /home/dpudorg/public_html/modules/mod_gk_news/tmpl/default.php on line 42

Hi

Please send me ftp access and the joomla panel access to Your site.

i can confirm that the changes teitbite did to GKNews on my site are working.

i would be monitoring the module in the forthcoming period in case unexpected errors appear.

Did any one get the solution for the problem that is occuring in double digit id
i am getting mad as i dont understand how to deal with it

Hi

I've already posted a couple of posts above the file to replace for in the module which fix the problem.

Thank you for posting the dbhelper file, it fixes errors when only showing one section.

But I still get the "Fatal error: Cannot redeclare toggle()" error described above when using the gknews module more than once on a page.

Each module are given a unique ID on the module page.

Any help? Or is the above solution a secret...

Hi

I think that You can setup GK News to use more than one section at a time, so You not need to use more than one module per site. I think that this is what Dziudek suggested here: http://www.gavick.com/forum/36-news-sho ... html#65787

thanx for the file. it fixed my prob.
