The category doesn't exist.
« on: August 21, 2014, 07:21:57 pm »
When trying to add a new category or sub-category the process seems to go OK and the new category is added to the Manage Categories list but thereafter any attempt to use/edit/delete the category results in an error page saying, "The the category doesn't exist."

Just started using SMF Gallery Pro again after having it offline for several months and after re-installing it a few days back I added three categories and they work just as expected with no issues, but today when trying to add a new category this issue started.

Thanks... Ken.

What SMF version?
And is this directly from the link in the manage categories area that you are clicking on?
Also do you have mods recently instaleld?

Sorry, thought you were asking for the gallery version.

SMF 2.0.8

When clicking on the link for one of the offending albums in the gallery page it gives the error page:
http://www.ourfamilyforum.org/FamilyForum/index.php?action=gallery;cat=5

Or, when selecting the Add Picture link in the gallery page and then selecting one of the offending albums it gives the error page:
http://www.ourfamilyforum.org/FamilyForum/index.php?action=gallery;sa=add;cat=6

And, when in the Gallery Configuration/Manage Categories/... selecting one of the offending categories gives the error:
http://www.ourfamilyforum.org/FamilyForum/index.php?action=gallery;cat=4

... if any one of the three previously created 'good' categories are selected in any of the functions they work correctly.

Mods installed after SMF Gallery... only SMF Arcade & Skin/PDL for Arcade RC2 1.0.5

Simple Audio Video Embedder 2.5.1 was already installed... will this cause some conflict and need to be uninstalled?

Thanks... Ken.

Thanks for the reminder... completely slipped my mind.  :-[

Fixed it with an edit supplied by IchBin™.
... anyone using this edit should backup your files.

Quote from: IchBin™
A temporary fix in TPortal.php about line #1024 you can find this code:
Code: [Select]
//return if not quite a category
if(isset($_GET['action']) && $_GET['action'] == 'manageboards')
return;

Change it to this:
Code: [Select]
//return if not quite a category
if(isset($_GET['action']) && ($_GET['action'] == 'manageboards' || $_GET['action'] == 'gallery'))
return;

I posted a bug report on TP as well. They shouldn't take over that variable. I use that in other mods and I am sure other people use it as well..
