After speaking to my host techs regarding separating the forum from my host account so it can independent, I was told it would be okay for me to remove my forum folders from within file manager. I removed them and now getting
404 - Not Found
The page you are trying to access does not exist.
If this error persists, please contact the website webmaster.

I need help to get it back: ukraine-english-news.com/forum

your host told you that it would be OK to delete the forum files?

no. never.


Hopefully, you have a backup that you can restore...   if not, you will have to put back a clean set of files and then reinstall any mods or themes.

I just replied to them and told them I was given wrong info. I'm gong to have to see IF I can find a back-up. I know I did couple of weeks ago, but not sure if I still have it. I'll look in my computer files. This sucks, as Ukraine is a hot issue currently and that's what it's based on. Thanks.

Please do note that the forum has two parts -- and you need BOTH.

Forum files control the display - the stuff that you see (e.g. the web pages)
Database controls the data - the content- the stuff that fills the web pages

I just looked through my downloaded files in computer and can only see upgrades, but not sure if it'll show back-ups. That would have to be within the forum itself I believe. Not sure. This really stinks.

Host restored it at no charge for their error. Thanks.
