Well I made a mistake and deleted COD4 general discussions , although everything was backed up I can not for the life of me figure out how to get back just these posts , it's an all or nothing sort of thing .

We still have all the old posts at the old site , the new php board does not have archiving , thought that may be my saving grace . But alas no . Posted in the forums for help to no avail . Anyone have any bright ideas that is more familiar with the code , I;m all ears .

Maybe I'll take screen shots and move them over here . :pale:

Lolz. Just to point it out though, you typed "CoD$" instead of "CoD4" in the description underneath the General discussion.

Also, what about making a forum for each server, like it was done with UT2k4?

Are the forums stored as separate MySQL tables? If so, you might be able to just dump that one table, re-create the forum on the new site, then load in that dump.
