Over the last few days I bravely decided to move the site to another host which offered more space. It was quite an adventure. It involved downloading all the files from the server I’m hosted with now, then uploading it to the new server. I then had to make the necessary DNS changes so the domain pointed to the new host!
I managed to shift most of the site without much problem. The move however left the forum with lots of errors that I couldnt sort out.
One look at the error message and I couldnt figure out what on earth it meant.<\/p>\n

Finally I decided to convert from the old, old IPB forum to phpBB.
There were quite a few scripts that did that but I struggled to get the latest version. After a lot of trial and error I finally found and configured the right converter script and managed to shift\"\"<\/a> over to phpBB. My heart sank as the first step gave an error message but it seemed trivial (some duplicate entry error!). But the rest of it was quite good!
Now finally I skinned the forum and got most of it up. Hoping that there are no bugs! Thank God for some timely help from people on another forum who helped me locate what I wanted! I’m almost cross-eyed now! Enjoy the new-look forum!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
