Mys v1.3.4 Item Function: Gender Change Potion

[Abronsyth]

Did you remember to add the new function into your database?

[NobodysHero]

Yep, inserted everything it said to as far as I can tell, but it won't work. Not sure what I missed or did wrong.

[Kyttias]

There are four steps. First, to add it to your database, second to edit functions/functions_items.php, third to create the item, and fourth to make it so the item will work by adding it to classes/class_privateitem.php. Can I see what you did for step four?

[Kyttias]

(For some reason I thought that was someone else's post, sorry. x'D)

Hmm... but all other item functions work? If you were to create a new item where all it did was put out a note that said 'Hello this item worked'... it would work? The code looks fine, and it's really baffling that there's no error message at all.

Can you confirm for me whether or not you have the Alternate Gender Images mod installed? I see that you're using the version of the code for those that don't have it installed.

[NobodysHero]

At current, we are not interested in using that mod. There is only one species on our site that has a different outcome, it seems unnecessary at this time. ^.^ So, in short, no, it's not installed. LOL I've no idea what to do on this. x.x Completely lost.

I can't find any syntax errors with an automatic checker, but HoF suggests for me to have you look in your error logs. For some hosts, it'll be a file in the same directory as the Mysidia installation. With others it'll be grouped in php management tools. If you can't figure out where to find your error logs, let me know what hosting you're on (or ask around your hosting's forums)?

[NobodysHero]

The error log is pretty easy to find on my hosting. XD But the only entry there is a lil cryptic.

I have no idea what that means. >.> So... If that helps you help me, then yay! XD

[Kyttias]

=/ That's probably not it, then.

The issue is with this line:

PHP Code:

$gender = $adopt->getGender(); 


The $adopt from item functions is not an instance of class OwnedAdoptable, but an instance of StdClass with properties of the same name as the database columns. This has a historical reason, as the model class for Adoptable and OwnedAdoptable were available after Mys v1.3.2, while item functions existed back since Mys v1.3.0.

So the fix is very simple, change this line to the code below:

PHP Code:

$gender = $adopt->gender; 


Lemme know if it works.

YAY! Thanks, HoF! It worked! WHOO!
