Style Variable Editor missing
 

Opened up my acp to do some tweaking on one of my styles. Clicked on the Style Variable Editor for that style and there is no content. The boxes/blocks are all empty. Checked the other styles Style Variable Editor, same thing, no content at all in the boxes/blocks. I have made no changes and am lost as to what could have caused this. Any ideas/suggestions ?

What version of vB and what version of PHP? Has anything changed on the site or server since just before the problem occurred? Is there anything in your error_logs (if you don't know where they are, ask your host)?

4.2.2 pl1, PHP 5.4, I had made no changes and nothing had been changed for several days before this was found.

I have the error log and not knowing what I'm looking at does me no good. One item in the log that sticks out the most is this :

"AYAH: ayah_config.php missing; will require setting of specific values."

What the heck is ayah ?

If needed I can give you access to everything if you should feel so charitable :)

I have no idea what ayah_config.php is from, but it isn't from default vbulletin. If you google it, you will get several results and perhaps that will help you figure out what it is from.

As of vBulletin 4.2.2, notices and warnings are no longer suppressed by default like in previous versions of the software. This means that on some servers, you may see warnings that you never saw before. In order to stop them from showing, please add the following line to your config.php file under the <?php line:

That may fix the stylevar issue you are having.

I currently have the following just under the <?php line:
Will that serve the purpose or should I replace it with the code you suggested?

Note: I tried your code and no difference so I'll just keep digging.

You should use:
This turns off the extra error reporting in php 5.3 & 5.4 (for strict & deprecated warnings), but will allow other important errors to show.

ayah = Are You A Human

On a side note, I hate ayah :)

Forgot I had installed that. I got rid of it.

Latest update: Re-installed vb. Problem fixed but, I sure would like to know what caused the problem to begin with. As it stands now I have no idea what could have caused the problem. If I had made some questionable changes that could have possibly caused this, I would have more of a notion what could have happened. I had never heard of this problem before and was quite puzzled by what could possibly have caused it. Could it have been something I did? Obviously it was. Do I have any idea or even a good guess of what I've done lately that could have done this? None whatsoever.

Lesson learned:
1. Be more careful while in admin cp.
2. vb has wompus cats in it's settings area (admin cp) :)
