RESOLVED! Going to \groups\orca as Admin then recompiling Lang=en there, solved the issue

so...

Dolphin needs a compile

Orca needs a compile

AND group\orca needs a compile

During our UAT testing our testers came up with an issue thats got us stumped. We need to get this out of test an into production. Any help would be awesome.

~johnny

Monterey CA.

Test user logs on (result = success)
Test user creates group under "Animals & Pets" called Cats (result=success)
Test User Clicks Post Topic (result=success)(URLhttp://www.xxxxxxx.com/groups/entry/Cats)
Test user Presented with post topic enty form at URL (http://www.xxxxxx.com/groups/orca/forum/Cats-0.htm#action=goto&new_topic=Cats)
Form Entry fields contain improper syntax (ex.L[Topic subject:]] etc. (result=STOP and escalate)

Level 2 steps taken

search for strings in lanq. in Dolphin - result (not Found)
Recompile Lanq "en" in Dolphin Admin (result=success
Recompile Lanq. "en" in Orca Admin (result=success)

Repeat UAT steps 1-5 = Same result STOP escalate.

testers note " A google of the string |Orca L[Topic subject:]] | shows hundreds of forums with these string. Most likely from not recompiling the lang. However, we have done that on "Dolphin" and "Orca"

Note #2 "Creating a forum in "Orca" shows no issues and Posting also is OK directly in "Orca", It seems that when "Dolphin 6.1.4" shells out to create the post, something is missing in the translation"

I just added Groups and came up with the same language compile issue: brackets everywhere in groups.

When you are in admin there is not a link to groups per se so you must type in http://yoursite.com/orca/groups .

This is where you will find the en link to compile language!

Good one! Thanks for this yyyh412!

Thank you so much for that everyone - I was tearing my hair out.

Talk about hidden functionality.

But wait a minute?

Is this how you get to moderate all of thos group forums too - by a backdoor. yep seems it is.

so to moderate all of your groups forums you need to remember the url

mysite/groups/orca/index.php

because no link exists anywhere.

makes me wonder how many people have link farms that they are unaware of - with loads of forums that they dont know how to access.

And it seems if you dont like the words "Orca :: Interactive Forum Script" plastered across the top of the page & the browser window. You have to go and remove the hardcoded name in the header file. seems that Orca was a rush job to me.

(the file is at mysite/groups/orca/inc/header.inc.php - if you need to do that)

Hi,

I still have an issue. I was seeing L[Topic subject:]] etc. whenever I was trying to post a topic to a group. So, I compiled Orca|Groups language by logging in as admin, navigating to http://yoursite.com/groups/orca/ and then clicking on 'en'.

Now, the L{Topic subject:]] etc. tags are gone but there is a message box in the middle of the box with the text: 'LOADING POST TOPIC PAGE...' but the page never gets loaded.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Dolphin seems to be such a nice product, but Orca is proving to be a nightmare!

Thanks

Sean
