$end errors
Hi,
I modified the oekaki to include an infraction system. In boot.php, I added the following to the end:
Code:
//Infractions
if ($cfg['use_infractions'] == 'yes') {
$delete_flags = db_query("UPDATE {$db_mem}oekaki SET usrflags = '', rank = '0' WHERE infractions >= '{$cfg['total_infractions']}'");
}
// Regular maintenance
// For now, we'll only run this during normal browsing, not on a scheduler
if (!$quiet_mode && empty ($mode) && empty ($action)) {
require ('maint.php');
}
?>However, I now get $send errors where I previously did not on one of my boards. I am wondering if you could help me spot the mistake?
Thanks

Re: $end errors
The problem is not here, so there must be something else in your boot file that's causing the parsing error.
PHP will return an "unexpected $end" error when you have too many open curly brackets in your code. Somewhere, you're missing a closing curly bracket. These problems are very hard to debug because no line numbers are available, so you'll have to carefully look at each code block. Having a text editor that matches brackets is a big help.
Now, what you're doing here is actually very risky, because it modifies the permissions of all members every time the board is viewed, and there's a risk that your status as the owner could be revoked if there's a bug. I'd recommend moving this code into the script that updates the infractions, so the database will only search for infractions when a new infraction is assigned. I'd also add a clause that will make the code ignore anyone with a rank above 8, so the owner will not be affected. This is important because only the owner can access the config file.
