I think that's normal for your installation since you aren't using categories at all.

You be missing the forums number in the beginning |^|AIRWOLF....

If your folder for that forums is Forum1 then the number should be 1.

Example:

1|^|AIRWOLF THEMES Discussion|^|Air your constructive views on AIRWOLF THEMES products - past and future|^|On|^|is|^|is|^|allreg&allreg|^||^|1|^|1000|^|ON|^|no|^||^|administrators,moderators&all|^|000001|^|date|^|This Forum has been set up to allow Airwolf fans and the Wolf Pack to air their views on Airwolf Themes products - past and future.|^|0

Thanks, but that didn't work either.

If you would like to zip up your Variable files and UBB files and send them to me through email I will go over all your files and see if I can figure it out for you.

I will PM you my email address.

That is the most amazing & generous offer I've ever heard and thank you so much.

But I really don't want to trouble you guys with this any longer as I decided today (after a week of fighting with it, with no guarantee in the end) to just do the Import/Export from Classic (all the posts & Member's details exported perfectly to 7 big fat TXT files nicely for me) and go the whole hog and come along for the ride with UBB Threads with the rest of you. It'll take me most of the day no doubt but I just can't not have a Forum any longer (we've a launch of a new 'Airwolf' TV series soundtrack product out today and my In-box is heaving with folks howling for its return).

Guys, honestly I've been *SO* impressed by how friendly and helpful it is here. I've never experienced that before on the web for Tech like this. Kudos to all of you. It has been truly respected and appreciated!

I'll be back regularly to browse the other forums now. Many thanks again.

Don't be a stranger. I have checked out your site and being an Airwolf fan I will be back to look it over even more closely.

If you have any problems and such just ask anyone here will help you to their best ability.

As a caveat if you are going to ubbthreads.
The importer script only works with a functioning classic board. It does not import a classic export file into threads.
At least as far as I know from when i upgraded.
So that means if you don't have your classic board running even the old version(which I believe will import to threads). You may be starting with a completely clean slate no posts from the prior board.

Of course whatever the problem is you have now may not impact the conversion(import).

Actually, I think the import may work regardless of if his classic is working or not in this case; the forums are *there* just not showing on the index. The importer should still be able to grab the content from the data files.

Yea Giz I am thinking it may work also but I think he should try JAISP's suggestion and edit the var file and add the 1 at least to the first forum line and see if it works.

Okay I think I may have a resolution for you. With the category option.
I was able to duplicate your problem.
Try this in the control panel.
Control Panel » General
Expand Forum Summary Options
Deselect Enable Categories?
It appears that you may have had a category existing and the upgrade may have enabled the above setting.
If the four forums are not assigned a category they will not appear if the item above is enabled.
