Hi, strange question. (how to resurrect my forum)
 

Hi, This is my very first post in this forum. I'm a little nervous. Why? Well, I inherited a popular vbulletin forum from another user (who turned our entire website over to my care when she had to suddenly quit). I'm no programmer, and my forum decided to 'hibernate' without my telling it to. (I contacted the former webmistress and she said the license was up for renewal and that renewing should likely fix the problem.)

So I renewed today.*cheers*
But now I don't know how to make my forum work again. I'd prefer to not lose any of the current information already in the forum as it's being used for a fan campaign and occasionally gets media attention.

I'm rather familiar with the AdminCP and I can access it, but I can't get the regular forum parts to work for the other members, or for myself.

Speedy assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
PS. Glad to be here! :)
