Log files? Which one would I look to for PHP errors?

[briangreul]

Hmm, yea, we use HostGator and I'll snoop around in our directory and see if I can find them.

PHP Code:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end, expecting T_VARIABLE or '$' in /home/brianpz/public_html/forums/inlinemod.php on line 3869 


this is my actual error message. When I've seen this in ASP it is usually a malformed If/Then sequence.

the amusing thing is that my mods were successful on everything and that we broke inline moderation. which is really a moderate nuisance but not a show stopper. My users are pretty well behaved for the most part.

My mod, was to add a snippet of code to areas that display username, online status, avatar (which we allow to be a picture) , and signature. We mostly run a private forum, but wanted to give guests the ability to see some of the site where the conversations aren't private. This also helps our SEO.

PHP Code:

AND ($bbuserinfo['userid'] != 0) 


This tidbit of code determines that someone is logged in. Probably not the cleanest method, but it works.

I wound up having to modify postbit and postbit legacy, some blog related templates, and a forum hom template. It wasn't that bad, and I'm sharing what I did in case someone else needs something similar.
