Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in

xzane

i am very new with php but i am able to get my way around joomla, word press and all. After installing a template when trying to test it at the front end it gives me the error below.

Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in C:\xampp\htdocs\joomla\templates\sj_news17\includes\yt_template.class.php on line 112

There was this answer where the admin suggested "You create a local variable, $sql_initialize, but then later try to reference the attribute $this->sql_initialize, which has never been initialize to anything."

The problem is that when I look at this codes below I dont know where to start.

function getParam ($param, $default='') {
if (isset($this->params_cookie[$param])) {
return $this->params_cookie[$param];
}
return $this->_tpl->params->get($param, $default);
}

function setParam ($param, $value) {
	$this->_params_cookie[$param] = $value;

whereby line 112 is }
return $this->_tpl->params->get($param, $default);

Will looking forward to your help

Assuming he is correct, you are somewhere doing something like

class a
{
	function f()
	{
		$sql_initialize = initialize();
	}
}

Instead of assigning to a class member.

The "admin" suggestion was actually my own from a different thread; it has absolutely no relation to the OP's code above.

@: You can't take replies out of context from other threads and pretend they apply to your own... especially when that reply cited a very specific part of the source code in that other thread.

Furthermore, you'll probably find more help on a support forum dedicated to WordPress (or the template you're using).
