Thank you.. I will send info via private msg and any advice will be gratefully accepted (and paid for as required)

:)

Thank you!

At the moment there are php/mysql issues.. I could have these looked at by other devs I have access to, however, none of them knows xoops.. so I figured I'd start here.. I want to get the site visible again then immediately start transferring content to a new xoops install.. I guess I could get that started concurrently.. anyway.. on visiting the domain this is on the page I see.. with an outdated link on it..

I have a very old install that has fallen behind in compatibility etc and I need to pay a XOOPs expert to

1. help me recover the site
2. where possible transfer content to a new XOOPs install

I am happy to pay in advance and I'm sure that it will be a fairly simple task for one who knows.

I did search here for paid support but the link in an old post went to a dead url ( http://www.xoopsgroups.com/ )
