Quick post, it did not go up yet :/ here is where things are at...
Old forum has been successfully archived and all information is saved (YAY!)
Claire was on the phone with "the guy" (not sure if it was Godaddy or the company for the forum) and was updating the old forum to current formats. If anyone knows about coding language the forum was made in a very old version of php. Apparently they could update the files only so far before it stopped but still making it unreadable for the new forum. After they upgraded it as far as they could, it was uploaded into the new forum. Long story short (because I'm already going on too much)...
We can't update the archived files enough to drop into the forum platform but if we launch the new forum without it we won't be able to drop the archive files in later.
Now it's down to finding a way (or any volunteer webcoders/developer? :D) to drop in the Archived Forum files, or we just launch it fresh and we all start over. Eventually we would get old files up as an archive static display.
Anyone has ideas or experience in this, seriously feel free to email me at mat@vpiindustries.com
