This should have fixed up those posts where most of the post was missing. There are still two posts that didnt get imported, these were massive! When I created the new forum database I used a field type of TEXT, which has a limit of 65,535 characters, but these 2 posts were like over 90,000 characters long. So tonight I'll do a extra database backup, change that field type to MEDIUMTEXT, which will handle 16,777,215 characters, and then re-import those 2 posts. Makes you wonder, how may times would you press a keyboard key in a life time? Glenn The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago, the second best time is right now. JAQ
