Fixed in v4.3.8

And now when you click on a Category to view tournaments inside of it, instead of being aligned to the width of the page, it is on the right only.

I can't replicate this. Have you modified any of the templates?

I think this is because you do not have any categories - upload attached file to forum directory (allowing overwrite)

Nice work!

I'm having another issue though. When viewing a ladder, I get the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting ']' in /home/pcgamer/public_html/includes/class_core.php(4425) : eval()'d code on line 5

Also, the team listing starts below the side menu.

Template tmnt_ladder_cmpt_top line 3

<a name="group{vb:raw ladder.thisgroup}"></a><vb:if condition="$ladder['groupnames']["$c_idx"]">{vb:raw ladder.groupnames.{vb:raw c_idx}}<vb:else />{vb:rawphrase ladder_league_group_x, {vb:raw ladder.thisgroup}}</vb:if>

Replace with

<a name="group{vb:raw ladder.thisgroup}"></a><vb:if condition="$ladder['groupnames'][$c_idx]">{vb:raw ladder.groupnames.{vb:raw c_idx}}<vb:else />{vb:rawphrase ladder_league_group_x, {vb:raw ladder.thisgroup}}</vb:if>

Some servers don't like the $ladder['groupnames']["$c_idx"], but want $ladder['groupnames'][$c_idx]
