Hi, I'm attempting a full site conversion to vbulletin and vbadvanced. I'm posting a bunch of news articles to get a feel for the layout and I noticed that using quote blocks messes up the front page. I've got the standard 3 column layout. If I have an article with a quoted block, it puts all of the subsequent articles over to the right a bit and obviously embedded within that first one. It also makes the whole right module column one solid table cell color. If I remove the quote block then all is fine again. I went through it with a fine toothed comb to make sure there's no stray bb code or html tags.. i even just did a tiny post with 2 lines in it and did one with the quote and it did the same thing. Ideas? Thanks.

You need to either set your 'News Posts Maximum Characters' option to a high enough number to include the end of the quote, or don't use quotes in your news posts.
