I don't know what I did! But now when going to any of my pages for Music Collection, I get these errors at the top:

Notice: Undefined index: separator in /home/worship/public_html/modules/mod_muscol_search_bars/tmpl/default.php on line 59
Artist
Notice: Undefined variable: where in /home/worship/public_html/components/com_muscol/helpers/helpers.php on line 625

Notice: Undefined variable: return in /home/worship/public_html/components/com_muscol/helpers/helpers.php on line 455

Notice: Undefined index: separator in /home/worship/public_html/modules/mod_muscol_search_bars/tmpl/default.php on line 60

I noticed it seems to be related to the Search module (which was working fine before) - so I disabled that and the errors go away. But I want the search back! What do I do to fix this?!!

Oops! Just saw that even with the Search module disabled, I still get this error on the main Music Collection page:

Notice: Undefined index: in /home/worship/public_html/components/com_muscol/views/artists/view.html.php on line 90

you enabled error reporting this is nothing to worry about.

just decrease your error reporting level, or disable it!

on joomla global config

I hadn't changed the Error Reporting in Global Config, but I went in and turned it OFF anyway - but the errors are still there only in Music Collection!!! Now what I *did* do that I remembered is I tried to see if I could edit some of those files to make the alpha bar go with the song title instead of the artist(!) - but I *thought* I'd put it all back like it was - I guess I missed something... How do I get it back to normal?!

1) if you have access to the php.ini file, then you can set the error reporting there to be disabled.. do you have access to it?

what files did you change when making the code changes?

again, this is nothing to worry about I understand you are worried now because you see all these notices, but notices are really no big deal to hide them is just fine!

I think it was a couple of the view.php files and the helper.php and the default.php... I can find out for sure later if that would help - I'd like to get it straightened out because I'm also getting an error now in the backend

fast solution: locate your php.ini file and set the erorr reporting as follows:

error_reporting = E_ERROR

you can know where your php.ini file is by looking on system info -> php configuration (on joomla backend)

Here's the error I'm getting in the backend now when trying to add a Menu item:

Notice: Undefined variable: attribs in /home/worship/public_html/components/com_muscol/elements/albumselect.php on line 35

I know I didn't mess with the albumselect.php file! How did what I do cause all these errors? Can I somehow upload the original .php files in the appropriate places? Or would I need to uninstall/reinstall to get everything back the way it was? Or is this a database issue?

I believe I can get to the php.ini file - but would stopping ALL error reporting be a good idea?! I'm more concerned that these errors just now started appearing after I messed with the php files - so I know I must've done something to cause this! :blush: :S

maaaan listen to me!!
the line I gave you is NOT to disable the error reporting, it is for setting it to "show only real ERRORS" level

E_ERROR means "show errors"

notices are NOT errors so they won't be shown!

Oh, okay....! Sorry - I didn't understand that. I will do that then...

Do you have any idea why these "notices" started appearing though? That is confusing to me and I wonder what I did...!

Uh oh - looks like I *can't* change it after all... Here's what the system info says:

Configuration File (php.ini) Path /usr/lib

I do see a php.ini file in my public_html folder and tried changing that one but it had no effect... ?

is it the right php.ini? sometimes there's more than one...

maybe it takes some time to load it again...
maybe you can ask your hosting provider?

please send me access to your site

I emailed it to you using the Contact link on this site - hope you received it! While you're there, could you also take a look at why the JW Player 2.1.1 does NOT work for me? I have the 8-23 version you posted here running since it does at least show the player - just have the "black box" issue...

Thanks so much for your help!
