  • 0

Our team has bought the Blanco theme, is a nice theme for Magento. Then after installing I tried to enter a product detail page and got this error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare themeOptions() (previously declared in
C:\wamp\www\magento\app\design\frontend\default\blanco\template\page\html\head.phtml:6) in
C:\wamp\www\magento\app\design\frontend\default\blanco\template\page\html\head.phtml on line 113

First I checked the provider website to read the FAQ’s and any possible issue. No luck, so I posted my question there. Anyway I cannot wait for them to answer so… I searched about this error and found some suggestions here in StackOverflow, this post, this other one and some other. But the answers given there are not useful, or maybe I’m not implementing it right. Tried using the function_exist but it prevents the function from being loaded and the theme is not loaded at all on the product details page. Neither the include_once "head.html"; works.

I verified that the function is not declared anywhere else on the code.

What you recommend me to do? Is a phtml file, so it has a combination of php and html tags inside it. Here is the code:

    Finally the error appeared again with the fresh installation of Magento. After carefully reviewing the exception.log file and the particular phtml file where the error was found I managed to get it working by commenting a line and adding small piece of code.

    This is the error from the exception.log file:

    exception ‘Exception’ with message ‘Notice: Undefined variable: tab
    in
    C:\wamp\www\magento\app\design\frontend\default\blanco\template\catalog\product\view\tabs.phtml
    on line 8’ in
    C:\wamp\www\magento\app\code\core\Mage\Core\functions.php:245

    Here is the guilty line on the tab.phtml file:

    <?php if ($tab != $this->getChildHtml('product_custom_tab')): $last = 'last'; endif; ?>
    

    What I’ve done is comment it and add a new line:

    <?php //if ($tab != $this->getChildHtml('product_custom_tab')): $last = 'last'; endif; ?>
    <?php $last = 'last'; ?>
    

    Now everything seems to go smoothly, I’m checking it at this moment, product details is showing, all fancy rollovers work and tabs are ok too.
