Hi there,

When I add a new style with a text effect I get a blank page with this error;

Fatal error: Call to undefined function imagettftext() in /home/manoloka/public_html/mysite/sites/all/modules/imagecache_actions/image_effects_text/image_effects_text.inc on line 344

Any ideas?

According to the PHP manual:

Note:

This function requires both the GD library and the »FreeType library.

So the freetype library could be missing, but because there is a fatal on the function itself, I guess that GD is not enabled at all at your server. Have a look at your server configuration at admin/reports/status/php to see if GD and freetype are enabled.

wrong status..., but I made a note to see if we can do a check on that with the status report.

Hi

GD is enabled see img

Freetype ??? Haven't read anywhere within documentation that needs that. I don't see it anywhere within the admin/reports/status/php page so I guess is not even installed. I'll ask my server to see if it can be installed and enabled it.

OK, thus with freetype missing the function also doesn't exist (as opposed to failing with an error message as I expected).

Hi fietserwin,

Thanks for your help.

I'm talking with the hosting company, see if they can install it for me. From there, we'll see if still getting that error.

Let you know how this ends up.
