OK here is the status, I-
- closed the forum
- did back up on the database
- in PHPAdmin I changed (removed "bbf") from each table name
- downloaded a new backup
- removed "bbf" from the table prefix in the config.inc.php file. now it reads "ubbt_"

I could login as admin and checked the Control Panel / Database & Paths >> and table prefix reads ubbt_
I can see various topics and replies

I then went to Control Panel / Cache Manager and clicked on update cache and got this
Control Panel Message

Quote
Script: /XXXX/CCCCC/public_html/forums/cache_builders/custom/portal_box_46.php
Line#: 9
SQL Error: Table 'britbike_com.ubbt_bbfFILES' doesn't exist
SQL Error #: 1146
Query: select POST_ID,FILE_DIR,FILE_NAME from ubbt_bbfFILES where FILE_DIR <> '' order by rand() limit 1

Is there something to be worried about or do I need to alter any other files???
I have not turned on the forum yet and awaits your input while you are a sleep. That's the beauty with 9 hours diferences in timezones.

Thanks
