I finally upgraded my forum to 2.0.18. I set it to maintenance mode and I thought  everything  upgraded successfully but when I went to sign in, it still said it was in maintenance mode. I signed in ok but when I tried to click on a tab in the forum, nothing happened and now my forum seems to be gone. I get a message saying it can't find the page.
Update. My forum is back but still says maintenance mode. How do I get it out of maintenance mode? I did each step in the upgrade process including deleting the upgrade files.

That sounds odd, I mean the forum going away and coming back like that - But for the maintenance mode:

Thanks so much. That was easy enough. And it was strange how my site vanished and then came back. I tried it on two different browsers and got the same thing.

Marked solved then. If your other problems continue, perhaps open a new topic and we can investigate.
