Where did you go in the ACP to do that?

Under: Import & Maintenance, click Update Counters and then Update postid's For Threads and click the update button on that table ;)

ah, I see. Did I not install the update counters correctly via misc.php?

You should have, it seemed to run fine to me without a problem, perhaps you just ran the wrong one?

wonder if it is because i grabbed the code from a fresh 2.28 but my forum uses 2.27.

Where do I go again in ACP to add some more navigation buttons to vbindex?

that would be in templates. i can't remember what ones off teh top of my head but wherever you see links to index.php, search.php etc. on a image just add whatever image and link you want. maybe somebody could elaborate on this its been a year scince i touched my vB.

Parse error: parse error in /home/gunandga/public_html/upload/forums/vbindex.php on line 410

any help would be great on this fantastic hack

TheComputerGuy...

Can you post the lines around 410 of the vBindex file here?

groovesalad, what do you mean more navigation buttons?
like navigation links in the left menu?
