Blank screen
in Questions
This discussion is related to the Signatures addon.
I'm getting a blank screen, when following the "Signature Settings" link in profile/edit. The settings link points to profile/signature, and when I change it to something else (like profile/siggggnature), I get a normal 404 screen.
So that tells me the method is available in the controller. But no matter what I've tried, I just can't get it to return anything but a white screen.
How do I debug this?
I'm using Vanilla v2.1a10

Yes, and it has been fixed in there for some time. https://github.com/vanillaforums/Addons/tree/master/plugins/Signatures

I found the solution myself:
In Signatures/views/class.signatures.plugin.php:70 i changed ProfileController_Signature_Create(&$Sender) to ProfileController_Signature_Create($Sender). Then it works. But I'm not exactly sure why this was necessary ... ?

Don't PM about development, I'm not currently taking on clients.

I don't quite understand your answer ... :)
I'm unsure about my solution, because I can see the plugin was tested and approved - yet I have to make this change to make it work.
This has me wondering, if there's something else wrong with my code.

Perhaps a code change is in order? Is the plugin on Github?
