Thanks for your reply.

I can duplicate the errors if you need them exactly, but they were a bunch of "unexpected {if}" errors. I admit I'm not very well versed with a lot of this, most of my sites use Joomla as the backend and I just edit the php. This is my first time really trying to dig in to the code of something.

I thought it'd be easy enough to move those three sections over into the right hand column, but every time I try I get the errors and the page won't load at all.

Also, will updating to 2.6 kill all of the editing I've done so far to the other template files?
