Functions.php Error From Hell

Hi. I tried to do a very easy hack. change the name "Guest". Now I can't see the individual threads and I get this error:

Parse error: parse error, expecting `']'' in /home/diva/public_html/test/admin/functions.php(281) : eval()'d code on line 31

Here's the weird part. I tried putting back the original functions.php and even a new one... I still get that error. Any ideas?

Hmm...did you edit functions.php alot?

You can maybe try reuploading the original functions.php if the hack was the only one, if not, just paste what you modified.

Imyself am not good with php, I get thrown off with parseerrors hehe, but I can compare and try to find a solution.

Hi! Thanks for answering so fast. Actually, I hadn't really hacked a lot at that point. But even when I replaced the functions.php, it stayed there. I had a friend set up another test board and he thinks it may have something to do with the style design. But it says it's the function.php. :\

Can you paste whats on line 31 in functions.php?
Did you replace functions.php with the one you downloaded in vb members area? If not, then try download fresh copy of vb and replacing the file.

Sure! This is lines 28-31:

if ($pagenumber>1) {
$prevpage = $pagenumber-1;
eval("\$prevlink = \"".gettemplate("pagenav_prevlink")."\";");
}

I am assuming that } is at line 31?

[Diva]

yes.

[DrkFusion]

Try this,

find

// ###################### Start getpagenav #######################

all the way to line 31, which I hopefully think it is ) and replace it with

// ###################### Start getpagenav #######################
// template-based page splitting system from 3dfrontier.com
function getpagenav($results,$address) {
	global $perpage,$pagenumber,$pagenavpages;

	if ($results <= $perpage) {
		return "";
	}

	$totalpages = ceil($results/$perpage);

	if ($pagenumber>1) {
		$prevpage = $pagenumber-1;
		eval("\$prevlink = \"".gettemplate("pagenav_prevlink")."\";");
	}
