Got an answer back from admin Jim - he's out of the office for a few days, but will take a look first of the week.
If it is possible to do he will change it..
As far as "what we got" It has been stated repeatedly that upgrades had a lot to do with what is under the hood.
The old version of the Phorm software was a series of patches and plugs so there was a lot of code
totally rewritten to make managing and running it better and more secure for they people that have to do the work.
(see Brian Moons comments)
The admin and owner though it was time to make the jump (they passed on earlier upgrades)
I'm no expert and it's not my forum so I won't second guess them
I don't want to devalue your work here but I have genuine questions. Why do you have to work one the "code" at all? Can't you just get a forum software off the shelf? Our needs here are pretty basic. In fact, other boards I visit have tons more bells and whistles than what we have and they all seem to come from canned software. Why all the work? What am I missing?
