Security Ticket Missing or Unmatched?

Yes and No

The above happens when the page was generated for a guest, but is later being submitted for a registered user.

As the user was a guest when the page was being generated, the token is empty.
But when he submits it later, he is being logged in - and thus the token is required and missing.

Ah, ok, that makes sense.

I was also told that a security token error can happen when vb times out in a process, such as uploading a large image file. I get the emails occasionally but have never had any reports of, or seen, any actual security token errors displayed on the site.

That worked all at least appears to have worked. I was surprised to see that Vbadvanced Links had a surprizing amount of template with the security token code missing about (14) and that was the majority of the template edits for the whole site and boy is there a lot of mods installed.
