Problem:

Ok so after someone hacking into an admins account on my forum circle of friends, I have created a new forum and was wondering how I can transfer posts or anything for that matter{Confused} Or cant that be done?

New forum :-http://<removed - just in case {Wink} >.vforums.co.uk/

It is possible for me to transfer any information which you wish (posts, topics, users). But I do not see how this would solve your current problem. So long as all admins have changed their password then the forum URL should make no difference.

well the people who are now one from the forum (the trouble makers) do not know about the new forum!!! And we just want peace!!!

So yes please transfer anything you can, member are all ready done or show me how to do it and I will Ross.

OK {Smile}

I'll generate a backup of the forum now. I'm not in the best position to upload it to your new URL just yet but will do so a little later tonight when I'm back at my pc (I'm only working from a laptop at the moment).

ross what exactly will you be transferring over, because if heather is going to need my help and stuff I need to know what i'll have to be fixed, providing the codes can't/wont be transferred over

Hi Heather,

Sorry for not being able to do this last night. My Internet connection proved as reliable as it always has been and died while preparing the new files. I'm going to upload them now and will apply some ad-free credits to your account by way of an apology {Smile}

Re: New forum help - Posted By Ross (admin) on 13th Nov 08 at 9:55am
I've transferred over the data for all topics, posts, polls, boards and categories. I have not transferred the private messages but can do so if you wish.

Re: New forum help - Posted By heather (heather) on 13th Nov 08 at 10:13am
That is wonderful, thank you so much Ross!!! Yes if you can do the private messages that is great or tell me what to do and I will have a go.

Thank you xxx

PMs are uploading now. You way want to double check the forum permissions in "Admin -> Manage Permissions" just to make sure everything has transferred as it should {Smile}

ross could you transfer the head/base images just in case heather can't figure out how (not calling her stupid) I have noticed that the codes that I had put into place are not there anymore, or where they not on the other site, because if so, they had gotten deleted as well..

Heather, forgive me if you don't wnat them transferred over, I am juist trying to help
