I know he's a great guy. I've followed this thread almost since day one, through all the versions. I don't think I really need much help, just some input to work things out on my own. I've resolved the other two issues and have one new one.
OLD: I used vbhlindex and it took care of the old articles, as I expected. I was just making you aware that the problem might extend to new installations as well as upgrades. That's complete.
OLD: I was able to get attachments to display in the 'news' forum, but I honestly don't know how. I re-indexed, deleted the old test thread, made a new one, and it worked. It doesn't display on vbHome, but I'm not real concerned about that, because you can't really place attachments anyway. Maybe I'll revisit it later.
NEW: Poll issue. I originally had the polls disabled, in vbHome options, while I took care of the other stuff. When I enabled them, and posted a poll to the 'news' forum, it didn't show on vbHome.
I have the '$latestpoll' placed and all the forum perms are set correctly, and the 'Allowed Users to post a poll' is set to my userid.
Is there something I'm missing on that? The polls do show up in the article list.
This is a test page, so it's got just filler in it right now, but the '$latestpoll' is right between the two bars under the search form:

The top two items in the article list are polls.
