Forum problem ???

M

Mike

I have been running a forum on a website I run, www.migo.org.uk Yesterday I
noticed a couple of postings in Chinese 1 with a few links added , I decided
to remove the offending posts but now my forum wont work !! when you click
onto the forum you cant see any postings although they all seem to be there
in my Tocproto file ? How do I get them back onto the main page ?

Any help would be good as my hoster hasn't replied to my request for help
(easyspace) ! I think that perhaps im missing some frontpage extension files
?? would asking for them to be re-installed help if I have managed to
delete something I shouldn't ?

Sorry thats not very clear is it !! I opened Frontpage-publish web- view in
frontpage- opened _Disc file -opened Tocproto file then deleted both mesages
all my messages are in the _Disc file but are not showing on the Index
page. I have to admit I am no web expert to say the least !!

Generally don't delete posts in a DW
- that breaks the threads and probably all future posts
Try running a Tools Recalculate hyperlinks to see if FP can reconstruct the threads
You should always just edit the post (as say "Post Deleted")

Unless your host has a backup to restore your deletions your DW is probably hosed by your deletions




| Tried that, Still nothing :-(
