I've really no idea why this suddenly cropped up, but I have suddenly seemed to have a lot of &lt's or "<" appear on my threads for no apparent reason.

Anyone know whats causing this and how to fix?

These characters are in "forumdisplay_threadlist" template, search and remove it from there. Or if you wish you can paste the entire code from that template here, and I'll try to search and remove them =)

Do you have Codepress enabled? It's recommended to have it disabled, because it's really buggy and old. To disable it:

Admin CP > Preferences > Turn on / off Codepress > Off.

(this won't fix already existing code, but only future edits, if, of course, that was the issue)

I figured it was there Smile

Here is the forumdisplay_threadlist template code:

</div>
<table border="0" cellspacing="{$theme['borderwidth']}" cellpadding="{$theme['tablespace']}" class="tborder" style="clear: both;">

			</div>

Thanks! This was turned "On" I've now disabled it.

I still can't seem to find these "< < < < < < <" in any template Sad Can someone pickup where we left off? Thanks

The problem is probably in the forumdisplay_thread template.
Could we have your forumdisplay_thread template?

Certainly! here it is:

<tr>
	<td class="{$bgcolor}{$thread_type_class}">
	{$attachment_count}	
<div>
            <table><tr><td id="tvatar">{$thread_avatar}</td><td>{$prefix} {$gotounread}{$thread['threadprefix']}<a href="{$thread['threadlink']}" class="{$inline_edit_class} {$new_class}" id="tid_{$inline_edit_tid}">{$thread['subject']}</a>{$thread['multipage']}<br><font color="grey">created by:</font> {$thread['profilelink']}</td></tr></table>        
        </div>
	<td align="center" class="{$bgcolor}{$thread_type_class}"><a href="javascript:MyBB.whoPosted({$thread['tid']});">{$thread['replies']}</a>{$unapproved_posts}</td>
	<td align="center" class="{$bgcolor}{$thread_type_class}">{$thread['views']}</td><
	{$rating}
	<td class="{$bgcolor}{$thread_type_class}" style="white-space: nowrap; text-align: right;">
		<span class="lastpost smalltext">{$lastpostdate} {$lastposttime}<br />
		<a href="{$thread['lastpostlink']}">{$lang->lastpost}</a>: {$lastposterlink}</span>
	</td>
{$modbit}
</tr>

Replace forumdisplay_thread with this:

<tr>
    <td class="{$bgcolor}{$thread_type_class}">
    {$attachment_count}    
<div>
            <table><tr><td id="tvatar">{$thread_avatar}</td><td>{$prefix} {$gotounread}{$thread['threadprefix']}<a href="{$thread['threadlink']}" class="{$inline_edit_class} {$new_class}" id="tid_{$inline_edit_tid}">{$thread['subject']}</a>{$thread['multipage']}<br><font color="grey">created by:</font> {$thread['profilelink']}</td></tr></table>        
        </div>
    <td align="center" class="{$bgcolor}{$thread_type_class}"><a href="javascript:MyBB.whoPosted({$thread['tid']});">{$thread['replies']}</a>{$unapproved_posts}</td>
    <td align="center" class="{$bgcolor}{$thread_type_class}">{$thread['views']}</td>
    {$rating}
    <td class="{$bgcolor}{$thread_type_class}" style="white-space: nowrap; text-align: right;">
        <span class="lastpost smalltext">{$lastpostdate} {$lastposttime}<br />
        <a href="{$thread['lastpostlink']}">{$lang->lastpost}</a>: {$lastposterlink}</span>
    </td>
{$modbit}
</tr>
