    Script showing up in serps

    I have a small forum and Google results are kind of messed up for the last few days.

    If you have a look at this : Google

    The threads which show up in results have some script code in the title.

    Can some one point me in the right direction so I can sort this out.

    As far as I remember I didint make any changes recently.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks

    How do I sort this out? Do you think upgrading to the latest version of vb and reinstalling vbseo and the theme would sort this out?

    I also checked other forums I run and none of them validates... what am I supposed to do?

    Thanks for your reply.

    You should follow warning details and get your templates fixed. Upgrading latest version will not help fixing this error as those error exits in your templates and they need to be fixed.

    I dont even have basic HTML knowledge leave alone correcting these errors... its all French to me :(

    How about deleting everything from ftp and uploading all the vbulletin files afresh and vbseo and the theme? Wont that just use the old data base and correct all the template errors?

    I havent done anything to cause these errors and I have been running other forums for years now without having any such problems... What causes these errors any idea?

    Does anyone provide help for a charge to correct these issues if reinstalling everything wont make any difference?

    vbulletin + vbseo validate out of the box. If you have validation issues, its from your addons or your theme.

    If you can't figure out, or hire someone, your best bet is to disable all your products (besides vbseo) and create a new skin template (with no parent) and set that skin to default (as it will be the vb default skin template set) and start over working form there getting your theme back together.
