Forum Home Enhancements - [AJAX] SmnLikQuick v2.0 - Advanced Announcements Block

Description:
SmnLikQuick v2.0 adds an advanced announcement block (Title and Content) to your vBulletin powered pages that is easily managed via AdminCP. This new version (based on the AJAX Tabs Content Script (v 2.0) written by Dynamic Drive), utilizes Ajax to display multiple announcements in one container when the title (tab) is clicked on. It also has the ability (and utilizes this ability upon install) to rotate between tabs (announcements) in a "slideshow" type manner until a user explicitly clicks on a tab (see screenshots provided).

See Post #02 for log.
See Post #98 for Upgrade Instructions.
See Post #99 for Multiple Styles Fix

I've look through some of my templates but I have no idea where the problem is.
Anybody else have any ideas? Its really annoying getting all these error messages every day.

Thanks.

Is this occurring on your forum home?

I don't think it is from FORUMHOME because I removed a snippet of code that was left there after the uninstall, unless there is more that I didn't see. Everyday I receive emails from my forum with that database error message and I'm not sure what is causing it. I logged onto my site , played around and posted a couple of test messages and stuff like that to see if I could generate the error but so far I haven't been able to but I still receive a 2 or 3 of those email error messages daily.

I'm not sure where smnlikquick puts all of its code or I would search through and try to remove every piece of it. I have searched through a few other templates such as forumdisplay, footer, registration, etc but I can't see any code that looks like it is associated with smnlikquick.

I'm not sure, when I used the uninstall, why it didn't remove everything?
Smnlikquick is not being displayed on the site since the uninstall and the menu for smnlikquick is gone from the admincp.

I just noticed that there is a file called smnlikquick.php in the modcp folder.
I could try deleting that file but I don't think that will resolve it because something must be calling that file to get the database error. Maybe I'll try deleting it and see if the calling file creates an error. That may tell me what file is calling it.

Can you do me a favor and copy the email with the mySQL error code into this thread? Removing IP addresses?

That is coming from the SmnLikQuick - Announcements Plugin. Did you remove all the SmnLikQuick plugins?
