Hi, I have submitted a few of my forums to search engines and have since updated the order of forums - will the url of any of my forums / sub-forums change? Thanks,Kez

No, the forum id numbers don't change unless you manually change them.

If they won't they will get the url's from the 'archive' section :) Which is at least something :)
