Hi Neto, Sorry I can't help directly. I've been getting the same problem and have posted very similar to your post. I'm using 1.10.2 and I see that you're on 1.10.3.

It only occurs when a new page is loaded or later altered.

An F5 refresh clears it and it ONLY reappears if the page is subsequently modified.

Anybody else seen this and can you assist?

Cheers

look in your News summary tmeplate called "compacta" there is some typo either missing " or ' or similar.

Hi to all,

I made some changes on my compacta template and it works ok now

1)removed all entryes that had htmlall
2) for some lack of attention I had closed my unordered list with {/ul} insted of </ul>

these two changes apear to have fixed the problem.

Hi Neto & uniqu3

I have searched thru my News Summary Template/s.

I cannot find anything called compacta or any UL tags as I've already removed them a while ago as I did not want 'category browsing'.

The error messages are still occurring.
Would one of you be so kind as to direct me to the 'compacta' file.

My knowledge of php is slim whilst I'm fine with HTML and CSS.

Thanks for your help

compacta is the name of a a custom template i made for news sumary.

I mistyped some tags when I wrote it.

For what I can say the problem was caused by my mistyping on the template.

I was originally trying to change the page title based on the news, but I gave up for now.

Hope this info help ypu.

If you are having a problem with a specific news template throwing errors it may help to paste the template her so we can see it...

[CapereSpiritum]

I don't think my problem is related to the news template as the 'error' also shows on pages recently edited that do NOT contain the news section

This is an error from a page which does NOT have the news...
string(148) "Smarty error: [in globalcontent:AWNWHeader line 4]: syntax error: unrecognized tag: cms_selflink%20href='Home' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 446)" string(123) "Smarty error: [in globalcontent:AWNWHeader line 4]: syntax error: unrecognized tag '' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 590)"

In the Globalcontentblock AWNWHeader, there is the following;
<a title="ArtWork NetWork Home Page" href="{cms_selflink%20href='Home'}">
Plus 1 image some basic text.

Here's the news template just in case
<!-- Start News Display Template -->
<h2>News</h2>

<p>

Just as an update...

The error message seems to only occur when I have set a age active/inactive. Certainly this ALWAYS generates an error message.

Hope this helps.

This...

string(148) "Smarty error: [in globalcontent:AWNWHeader line 4]: syntax error: unrecognized tag: cms_selflink%20href='Home' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 446)"

I would remove the %20 and just use {cms_selflink href='Home'}...

If you set the page to inactive the system won't find it which is most likely why you get an error...

[CapereSpiritum]

Thanks Dr CSS

Don't know why the %20 was there. It's not in any other CMSMS Linker Links.

I've est a page inactive. Refreshed the page... NO ERROR.

Set Active again, refreshed and NO ERROR.

I think you've cracked it.

Much appreciated...
