[L[Recent Topics]] How to fix

I have recompiled languages until I am blue in the face.  Even uninstalled the forum module and reinstalled and compile languages and it is still there.  How do I fix this? 

I'm sure you searched the forums for this, but just in case:

• To compile the forums
• • go to the "Manage Forums" page (http://your-dolphin-install-url/forum/?action=goto&manage_forum=1)
  • Compile Language:en ()
  • if the [] is still there, clear the cache

Yes, I search the forums but the search engine here is not the best.  Didn't work for whatever reason only known to the gods.  A second uninstall and reinstalled restored the forum.  Luckily it is on a test site so no worry about data lost.

Are you testing this with 3rd party template?

I sometimes have an issue with this. 

Here is how I fixed it (for this I will use UNI)

1) Copy uni and call it uni_en

2) navigate to uni_en

3) open params.php

4) make it look like this

<?php

  if( isset($_REQUEST['gConf']) ) die; // globals hack prevention

   require_once ($gConf['dir']['layouts'] . 'base_en/params.php');

   $gConf['dir']['xsl'] = $gConf['dir']['layouts'] . 'uni_en/xsl/';// xsl dir

    $gConf['url']['css'] = $gConf['url']['layouts'] . 'uni_en/css/';// css url

    $gConf['url']['xsl'] = $gConf['url']['layouts'] . 'uni_en/xsl/';// xsl url

?>

5)  Save it and the [L[Recent Topics]] should now be fixed.

Geezus Darkclown.... don't tell people to do all that crap when all they have to do is click the little 'en'.

And if clicking the en does not work, it's usally one of the following.

1) Permission problem.

2) One or more forum files damaged.

3) Custom template not compatable with the version of dolphin it is installed on.

I still remember darkclown's epic blog post on how to change the copyright notice.  This is a must read for all Dolphin site owners.
