I went in and pruned out one of the messages. the problem is that now the subject of the message no longer appears in the Last Post column on the board home page. Only the date and member's name appears. I'd really like to get the subject back in there the way it belongs. Any ideas on how to do this? Also, is this a bug?
Well, those things didn't seem to work but thanks for the reply!
But I DID get it to work by entering the subject name and member's name in the lastnumber.file found within the particluar Forum folder in my non-cgi directory.
