    I think the messages are still messed up some of the times.... I know there was an example someone found...

    /edit... never mind... the post was started before we moved to the new server...

    Well, it should be good at teh moment. Yesterday, I installed vBSEO and it got all screwed up. I removed the package and the forum was fine. Except Apache crapped out this morn. The ISP says maybe it was my package (no jokes). Anyway, I won't screw with it for a while to make sure it's all square.

    A Bimmer Nut for sure: '04 530im (current daily driver), '97 m3, '98 323is, '99 Z3, '01 740iL, '06 330cicm zhp, '02 R1150R, '69 r60, Owner/Operator of www.Bimmer.info and www.BimmerNut.com
    And I still maintain: '90 535im (sold to daughters best friend, one of my favorite bimmers), '92 525im (daughters other best friend now drives this one).

    If I go to my old bookmark for the old site it still says the site is down and to check back on June 18th:
    Check back tomorrow (on 6/18/2008), we will be on the new server and the new ISP, NO MORE OUTAGES....Bimmer Nut Ed
    Maybe some folks won't figure out to click on the bimmer.info button to access the new bimmernut.com site? It took me nearly a week to figure it out!

    I also just found out that if I submit a reply, the window goes blank and I have to go back to the thread to see my post. It used to update automatically and I'd see my post in the thread. At least this time it threaded the new message properly with respect to time of post.

    What's the URL of that old bookmark.

    If you go to to www.bimmer.info, it has a redirect.

    What I'll do is, rename the forum folders so that they get a page not found, then hopefully they go to the home page.

    I made the forumdisplay.php url a redirect to this location now. That's probably where people have bookmarks to. Hopefully that'll bring them home.
