Oh it works for me. It works fine on the left. It works fine on the right on every page but ONE. The main index which of course has Photopost. Now if I remove the ubbt_photopost.tmpl require from the ubbthreads.tmpl the sidebar comes up fine with no SQL errors on the main index. I did notice the code differences in the instructions but found where things needed to go. Interesting that this might be a MYSQL thing as maybe the mysql is not closing from Photopost who knows.
