It's always been my intention to move the forums from dynamic URLs to static HTML URLs.
However, I never realised what a rear-end it would be to implement.
The forum has been down from Friday morning to Sunday morning - so I guess you could say that on the third day we were finally risen.
Basically, it was just one problem after another - I got something wrong on the initial coding, so had to hold back for support (it was a small issue, as ever). Then I tried to set up the boards in a new folder, but had to wait for support from the webhost (and lo! they were slow), and then I had a nightmare of trying to redirect everything from one folder to another.
In the end, I reverted back to Friday's original set-up. However, there's another little bit of code gone awry (read: I've made a small error) and to compensate for that I've had to not show the subforums (Baha'i, Buddhism, etc).
Anyway, we're finally open. Been a heck of a pain - quite a nightmare infact - but CR is back in one piece.
