ModuleInterface.php not showing labels / table headings?

[rocketscience]

Hi all,

A bit of a bizarre one this.. we have an old version of CMSMadeSimple (1.4.1) and a client has suddenly came to us saying a few areas have developed issues. More specifically anything using moduleinterface.php in the Admin area is not showing labels (as below) and missing table headings:



And zoomed-in:



Pages outside of those using moduleinterface.php appear fine - as below:



I have tried overwriting all system files with a fresh version from a 1.4.1 tarball, but no luck there.

Because of this - I can't help but think it's environment but it's affected none of the our other sites on the same hosting plan, and our hosting company hasn't mentioned upgrades as of late.

Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance.

PS - I know upgrading would be logical but it's for a non-profit organisation and we never charged for development and maintenance of the site, so the time needed to upgrade it and fix various issues is not really worth it. Although do bear in mind that I did try to upgrade to the latest version and it broke various modules and css (even after replacing '{stylesheet}' with '{cms_stylesheet}' in the template).

1.4.1 is no longer supported. Upgrading to the newest version will solve your problems.

All it takes sometimes is a minor upgrade in PHP versions on one server...

I disagree: I have at least two sites that are maintained for free and for similar reasons; it has proven to be hazardous to let them sit without maintenance for so long, be it for security reasons (and these are the more pressing reasons IMO) or for small changes to the site (that turns out to be impossible or difficult as in the case of this site). I would, at least, try to upgrade up to CMSMS 1.7.1 (which already requires PHP version 5.2.4+).
But I strongly recommend the full upgrade to the latest CMSMS version.

Thanks for that Jo Morg.

Will try a minor upgrade to see if modules and stylesheet stays intact.
