Is the Story Tracker mod (available from Tammy's site) compatible with eFic 3.5? I ask because I got this error after installing it and then going to the Browse/Tracked Stories page http://www.seventh-star.net/drfa/browse.php?type=tracker :

Notice: Constant _UNINSTALLWARNING already defined in /home/*****/public_html/drfa/modules/challenges/languages/en.php on line 16

Is this something to be concerned about, or no, because, since the mod is a fresh install, I obviously have no stories set to track yet?  Debug IS turned on, but I'm not sure if this is the type of error that would normally be hidden or not. Also, I'm a bit confused as to why something from the challenges module would come up as an error for the Story Tracker module...?

I don't have this mod installed, but the error you get is one of the notices that are visible in debug mode only. If the module works fine otherwise, you can ignore this message and turn debug mode off.

The notice says that a php constant with the name _UNINSTALLWARNING is already defined in another language file (the one that comes with challenges module). Not really a bug. But I think that these constants would be better placed in the main language files, because they are for general usage and not for module specific things.

I tested it out after modifying my storyindex.tpl to show the tracker link, and once I'd added a story to my tracker, everything seemed to display just fine with Debug off.
Thanks!

Don't worry about it. It's just a notice.  If you turn debug off it'll go away.  Edit the language file and remove the line with _UNINSTALLWARNING to fix the error.

I just have a small question regarding the tracker myself and since the topic is still open and relevant to me (I upgraded to 3.5), thought I'd tack it here.

The install went superbly, but I am just trying to add the Tracker to the browse section and I thought adding {tracker} would do the trick in my browse.tpl since I prefer to input my links the way I want as opposed to the way {output} handles the items.. but the link Tracked Stories doesn't pop when I do that.

I verified that my database had it written tracker and not Tracker... and indeed, it's tracker with lowercase t so... shouldn't it be working?

[Solved]

I actually created a pagelink that I pointed to browse.php?type=tracker and that did the trick.
