Just finished installing Memberlist mod, now getting Parse Error

[soundoftheuniverse]

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/apbooty/public_html/ApGallery/themes/rainy_day/theme.php on line 1580

Is the error I'm getting after going step by step through the Memberlist instructions posted by Jason.  I really want to get it working soon.  LMK if you have a solution for this parse error.

thanks

Here's what line the lines leading up to line 1580 which is last:

function theme_html_picinfo(&$info)
{
    global $lang_picinfo;

    $html = '';

Thanks in advance for your help

The memberlist hack has been integrated into cpg1.3.x core code, why don't you just upgrade?

P.S. Next time, reply to the thread you're refering to instead of starting a new thread.

Oh sorry, I've read your warnings about hijacking other peoples posts so I didnt' want to post on someone elses thread.  If it's ok I'll keep it in mind next time.

I've downloaded the upgrade I'm just reluctant to install it since I'm not really sure how to backup coppermine.  I'm afraid all my albums will be deleted with the upgrade.  Should I have any fear of losing data during the upgrade?

backup all your files using ftp, backup your database using phpMyAdmin, and you should be save in case anything goes wrong.
Upgrading is a simple process, you just upload the files from the package to your server (overwriting the existing files), you run update.php and you're done. For more details an backup, check the faq, for mre details on the upgrade process, check the docs that come with coppermine.
