Start a new one, as actual errors like you saw should not occur, and so continue will not arise normally. _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums forum.myfreeforum.org

phpbb2 templates are completely and utterly different to phpBB3 templates. You could not start to automatically convert them. _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums forum.myfreeforum.org

Is it good or bad luck though, Symon found problems, Archers_rest is finding a problem. The problems are of course being rapidly fixed, but why have loads of people going through it? _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums forum.myfreeforum.org
