    Half my forums are missing

    I was recently hacked and was able to restore using a DB Backup, however now the first 10 forums I had are missing. The show in the Fourms area of the AdminCP and are set to be active however they will not show on the main site. I use a direct link to a post that is in one of those forums, I get a message saying I don't have access to view this page. That is while logged in as administrator. Unfortunately these forums are the most important ones for my board. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also I mainly scanned through my database and db backup and the posts and forums are listed there, so I know they are in the running db. Thank you.

    Edit one of your forums in the Admin CP and save them. This will rebuild the datastore and they should show up properly.

        What display order do they have? Make sure it's not '0'.

          Display order 1, 2, 3. etc each subcatagory/forum is the same. Forums 1 and 2 are what is missing.

              I don't know how or why, but I took a few days off as I was sick, and when I came back today everything was back to the way it is supposed to be. Perhaps vBulletin has a self healing process as well.
