    i searched around and haven't had luck with finding solutions to the problems.
    Did you remember to try that trick in admimcp about rebuilding the style.. AGAIN yes try it again and if posts and threads are liste dbut do not show up... update ALL the counters especially the forum/thread/post ones but do them all and unless it's something weird like with a few others it should work!

    If that does not work contact your host and ask them to temporarily disable all mod_securities on the server and see if it works then .

      I still can't mine to display properly. I can get into the admincp fine if I type in the direct URL, but the normal forum will not load.

        I'm stumped for now.. look around in this forum for 4.0 you might find something someone else tried that worked.. like I said some have found a few work arounds and others will just need to wait for the Gold release .

                  Yeah been there done that and under suspect file versions that one file is a main error which most people get because it's a problem bug which should be fixed.

                  any other solutions cause I already did that page and scanned the forum found threads, tried their fixes, but fail.

                  also when posting a thread, after clicking submit it turns into blank page, yet click back and go to main forum and click refresh and your thread will appear, but not viewable when you click on it.

                  show groups comes up blank as well

                  back at step 1, tried so many solutions even some of my own.

                            Just making sure.. well unless there's something the rest of us don't know about then I can't do much more... your sure you double-checked everything.. I bet you have already a few times... well if I have spare time this coming up weekend I might take a look just booked with clients so I can't do any free work atm I only have time to lend some help here and there which has helped a few however I'll pm you this weekend when I have time to take a glance at it, it might be a quick fix if not then at least we will have tried .

                                I have a small issue. Apparently I was in my live forum's admincp and not the test one when I uninstalled all my products. Is there a way I can get them back by doing a restore of the SQL or some other quick way?
