Php errors at the top of the page.

First let me say I love the forum, but I have run into some kind of error. So far it doesn't seem to be doing any harm(I can still register/login with my test accounts which is about as far as I am in the installation/setup process), but at the top of the page I get this php error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')' in /home/sccon/public_html/core/model/modx/filters/modoutputfilter.class.php(162) : eval()'d code on line 1

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')' in /home/sccon/public_html/core/model/modx/filters/modoutputfilter.class.php(162) : eval()'d code on line 1

Again, I am not seeing any noticeable functionality problems caused by this. Anyone know what is causing this?

Edit: Also, this error only appears after I've logged into the forum account. I've tried logging out of the Modx cpanel before logging into the test account, but that doesn't seem to have an impact on the appearance of this error. [ed. note: Wickian last edited this post 11 years ago.]

One of your PHX-style output modifier tags is incorrect. The odds are there's a single quote where there should be a backtick. If these are piling up rapidly, it's probably in a Template.

Hmm alright, so I'll just need to go through the templates associated with users until I find the syntax error then? I'll let you know how that goes when I finish this.

There aren't any errors in any resources or snippets/chunks that I can see. That just leaves the actual .tpl files then. I haven't found any in the /core/ directory yet unfortunately.

Edit: I may have narrowed it down to "wrapper.tpl" in the discuss themes folder. It make sense since this file is used in every page of the forum display. [ed. note: Wickian last edited this post 11 years ago.]

The problem of the code listed here are the hyperlinks. Whenever I removed them, or replaced the URL's with #, the syntax errors disappear, but I can't see any errors myself(I'm no php or modx expert).

Could the errors be occuring since this is a test account on an inactive forum, and the pages in those URL's don't exist? I'm considering just removing this code entirely.

Wow, that is one monster set of nested Output Modifiers. It may be just too complex for the parser to handle.

Well it runs fine when I remove the hyperlinks, it's just those([[+discuss.config.url]]thread/page_url) that are the problem.

For anyone else who might have this problem, I solved it by swapping the above code for the actual URL to the forums in the hyperlink.

We really need to get rid of that set of output conditionals and in general find a better way to handle the header stuff...
