Re: blank administation page after copying to block folder

Greg, the link (http://www.e-nauka.kursy/) you sent me doesn't work, so I have not yet taken a look at your site.
About the blocks:
You have installed the correct version? Blocks for version 1.5 of
Moodle are not compatible with Moode version 1.4.x and vice versa.
You copied the directory that's inside the zip to your /moodle/blocks directory? They all have to go just one level beneath the blocks directory. You should have /moodle/blocks/wikipedia/ and /moodle/blocks/fancy_clock and so on ... with no extra directories inside them.

sorry for the misspelling. it's http://www.e-nauka.org/kursy/
Regarding the second question I'm not sure.
The last question - I'm pretty sure I didn't make any mistake here.

The site is 1.5, but I 'm not sure if these blocks have been updated for 1.5.
Can you try adding one block at a time to see if a) one particular block causes the problem (if so, which?) or b) any of the 3 will cause the problem? And post the code for the offending block(s) here?
I strongly suspect it's just 1.4 blocks that don't work, but the admin screen should not go blank no matter what. We must fix this.

I've already made a 1.5 version of the clock block. The wikipedia block is just a search form which links to wikipedia, so it might be possible to enter the content directly in a html block.
The bookmark block code is not that easy to update. It has three database tables attached to it, of which one should make use of the standard blocks table which is now in the block code. The database calls are not Moodle's standard calls because this block is an adoption of a program by Stephan Frech. Language strings are not completely finished. Furthermore I have discovered that it is not easy to manage students sharing their bookmarks. This functionality does not belong in a block. It should be in the glossary. (moderated commentable student entries)
I have directly visited your site's /moodle/blocks/ directory (there should be an empty index.html to prevent this) and did not find any directories with names for the three blocks you mentioned. So you succeeded in deleting them, right?

Attached is a version of the WikiPedia block that returns the search in English, within a new browser window. Works on 1.4 versions.

...and just to add, it will search in whatever the current language is, not just English (the interface, however is in English - needs language strings).

Nice, who made this? Wish I had found out about this before. Thanks!
