ERROR

Matching CODE tag missing. Unable to format message.

As the comments above that function indicate, the use of mb_substr there was meant as a workaround. Seems like you found a case where that workaround fails ...

If you don't use UTF-8 encoding, then use this workaround for the workaround:
And please submit a bugreport so we can look into a better solution for future versions.

not sure, so i better ask
instead of this code:

i put your code

?

the funny thing is, that i first upgraded one other geeklog & that one does not have those simptoms ...

the bug report
http://project.geeklog.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=524&group_id=6&atid=105

ps
allmost finished with translations ...
i tried with english language file & there is that same result ...

The piece of code I quoted above is already there, minus the

$mb_enabled = false;

which is meant to replace the line just above it.

bye, Dirk

now i got it

warnings are gone

but ... i still have the problem regarding
non existent values right before and after the
:
in admin/event.php
in all skins

is it possible that it would be language file problem
(i tested it with englih ant it is the same prob)

i tested it with englih utf-8

the same

thingy looks like this

The drop-down is for the post mode and the line below that is for the hits counter. Both are new features in 1.4.0. Since you obviously have an updated theme and your language file is okay, that can only mean that admin/event.php is not up to date (i.e. is still the one from 1.3.11).

bye, Dirk
