De.scription and Message

I have had IM Portal installed on my site for quite awhile, and everything works perfectly except for in the ACP. Whenever I got to Blocks Management or Page Management it doesn't show all text and therefore is missing some features. I have gotten by with it like it is, but lately it is really starting to bother me.

This is what it looks like:

Please advise.

It might be that your theme's ACP file isn't complete. Have you tried viewing that same page using another theme?

I think the fix involves copying the base themes files over to your theme's folder but I don't remember exactly...

Well it never worked in the default theme, subSilver. The one I use now it doesn't show up either and I copied all the files into that theme as per the directions.

looks like your using BBTech. In subSilver AND BBTech admin folder, you should have all of these:
-blocks_edit_body
-blocks_layout_list_body
-blocks_list_body
-blocks_position_edit_body
-blocks_position_list_body
-blocks_variables_edit_body
-blocks_variables_list_body
-confirm_body
-layout_edit_body
-layout_list_body
-portal_config_body

in the root/admin folder, you should have all these files:
-admin_blocks
-admin_blocks_pos
-admin_blocks_var
-admin_clear_cache
-admin_layout
-admin_portal

open BBTech/simple_header.tpl and make sure it says the correct template name
open BBTech/admin/page_header.tpl and make sure it says the correct template name

That's a yes on all of those. All files there and proper templates in the two files.

If it's missing some text it could be that the language keys are not all there. Check your file edits for lang_admin.php from the install instructions.

OMG thank you I got it now. I had installed the proper things in lang_admin under languages but not in the "English" folder's lang_admin. Thank you thank you thank you!
