Sudden administration area problem :(

Hey Guys,

Did a quick site update and suddenly I'm having the following area in certain areas (orders, products) of the backend..

Any ideas?   Thanks :)

It would help to know what you changed, if anything... what do you mean by quick site update?

Just some social media buttons to the product page... but I rebuilt the project for the first time in ages to do it

so it could be anything unfortunately...  I was just hoping this was a known or common issue

thanks for your quick reply

Comment out this line and rebuild and see if it works:

  <nopCommerce:ToolTipLabel runat="server" ID="lblStartDate" Text="<% $NopResources:Admin.Orders.StartDate %> "ToolTip="<% $NopResources:Admin.Orders.StartDate.Tooltip %>" ToolTipImage="~/Administration/Common/ico-help.gif" />

Something in this line is coming up as 'null' so you would have to do some tinkering to find out what it is, but as far as I can tell this is just a tooltip, so if you can comment it out and get it to work then it really isn't a big deal if you don't have the tooltop available.
