Mickie D - Try reverting your index_threadbits template. If that doesn't help, the problem is most likely caused by one forgetting to run the upgrade file after upgrading to a new version of vBa Homepage.
killervette - Sure, you could remove the code and add it to that page.
SVTBlackLight01 - That's not an option at the moment... It could be done with conditionals in the template though.
fasteddie - It looks like your template table has become corrupted somehow. Try using phpMyAdmin to repair the table, or you could use the "Repair / Optimize" option in your admin cp.
