My left side panel has a SMF Gallery block. It works fine, randon, etc....But before the name of image txt and user there is a bit of extra bbc type code showing.

For example notice the visible /url's:

Any help getting rid of that extra letters, code, whatever it is would be greatly appreciated....I'm sure I'm missing something simple....

Thanks,

For some reason all of the </a> tags have been converted to BBC. If you search through that code and replace every [/url] tag with </a> that should fix your problem.

Bingo IchBin.....

I think it happened by selecting bbc code in the block accidentally....Then going back to phpcode.....At least that is all I can think happened.....Seems odd though.

And thanks for your support over the years. I know you have helped me a few times before over the years....A beer is certainly in order next time you find yourself in North East Pennsylvania.....

Scott
