Hey buddy, sounds like a template issue. Login to the Admin CP, and I'll bet you see something to the right that asks if you want to revert templates....

Do a full backup (I say this 20,000 times and people complain I oopsied and didn't do one) and then revert and I bet it works. You just might need to do some edits for other hacks/addons you have. I'm guessing the theme you use is not compatible with the Vbulletin version you are running. Try changing to the default theme and see if the issue is still there. If it's not, it's definitely the theme.

This setting may help:

Chats display / Maximum number of displayed chats in the collapsed mode - set to 0 see if this helps

Some phrases he actually missed and they still are in French. The custom Avatars, should work. Unless you have special permissions on that directory.

For the life of me I can not get the channel icon to display for my second channel.

I've copied it to the channels dir and in the channel setup i've tried it with and without the .jpg extension.

Any help would be great!
