Trouble adding HTML widget to dashboard
Hi, I am having some weird trouble adding a widget to the dash. I followed the directions here and created a widget on my live server perch Runway install. It worked for a minute, and then when the site was refreshed the dash had disappeared. Now it looks like this:
I can still access settings to turn the dash off. If I remove the dashboard.php file from the app folder, the dash reappears also. Here's what I have in the folders (note I've mostly copied direct from the docs to minimize my mistakes and test)...
admin.php:
<?php
if ($CurrentUser->logged_in()) {
$this->register_app('perch_dashboard', 'Dashboard', 1, 'Welcome', '1', false);
$this->require_version('perch_dashboard', '2.0.8');
}
?>
dashboard.php
<div class="widget">
<h2>
<?php echo $Lang->get('Title of your widget'); ?>
</h2>
<div class="bd">
<p>Your content goes here.</p>
</div>
</div>
This is definitely something dumb I'm doing, I'm sure of it. Can someone please point it out? :)
It looks like your getting an error. Have you checked the PHP error log?
Is
$Lang
defined?
