What is the easiest way to fix this and not hose anything? I tried clearing the cache.

PrestaVOD support replied to my email:

"This is a bug introduced with new PrestaShop version.

It's realy not important (a simple warning because PrestaShop does not check content before calling it).

We made a little patch, and we have to release a new version of PrestaVOD module soon.

Keep in touch through PrestaVOD.com."

Actually, quick_access_current_link_name seems to be a variable from the PrestaVOD module and header.tpl is the template file wher the module tries to access this variable.

The error shows that the template programmer forgot to test if the variable exists before accessing it, like

{$quick_access_current_link_name}

instead of

{if isset($quick_access_current_link_name)}{$quick_access_current_link_name}{/if}

BUT, this is not a PrestaShop bug, it's the template programmer's attention slip, whoever the template programmer would be (probably the PrestaVOD module maker). It's not honest behaviour to claim your error is PrestaShop's error. PrestaShop has enough bugs as it is.
