This other method where the forum was wrapped in yet another package added to some of the sluggishness and bugginess that existed prior to the change. Long story short, there was some licensing fallout between the two software packages, and they quit supporting the 'bridge' that allowed the two software packages to work well together. Oh well, what do you expect for free. Anyway, just need to do some cleanup, I may keep the default look and feel, with some minor tweaks and clean up, just to keep it simple. Looks like the e-mail notification link is correct now, which was one of the anomalies.
Edit: Oh, plus I need to re-add much of the information back as some of the old tools no longer exist.
