Thanks Sheelagh,
Huge sigh of relief actually.
This was a massive update (still got tinkering to do on it over the next few weeks).
Luckily had great support from a guy in America called Mark Hamill who specializes in Databases and PHP, MySQL, and he really helped take the pressure off doing conversion work to convert from 5.6 which is now out of date to the current version 7.2. (cheers to Mark if you happen upon this thread).
We are now using the very latest version of phpBB3 - 3.2.8 with a new design that I'm still testing.
Cheers again,
Mack
