Ok, I had a forum for my gift shop. I had deleted the forum itself but the strutcher and the information is still in the Database. Is it possible to download the lastest version to get back up running with all the information I have?

of all the data is still in the database then yes just upload the the files from install archive ... remove the install.php and upload the repair_settings.php, run that and set all the paths to the old databse etc.

thats ok, there werent any db changes that I can recall in the update, think it was more file updates.

If you are worried justdownload the install file from the archive area for 2.0 then when its all down run the update for 2.0.1

I don't see a repair_settings.php at all. Where can I find it?

before you start take a backup of the database in phpmyadmin ... just incase ... also yes post if you need more help ... remember if you want someone to do it who knows what to do post in Help Wanted (Not for support) however some people may charge for doing it.

Ok I have looked at the file if you open your Settings.php and just remove the } at line 53, this is not opened anywhere and is causing the error.
