Is it possible to move my entire board to another host, members included? I'm getting a little fed up with phpbbhosts.

Yes, Get our SQL Dump from your hos and you can take that basically anywhere so long as the board is not heavily modded.

Thanks FN. No mods, they don't allow it. Thats one of the many reasons I'm considering leaving. That and the fact that I can't add any custom bbcode's that contain script, even though every other host seems to allow them. It might sound like I'm being petty, but how can I try compete if I can't customize like everyone else.
So I just ask the host for the films4all SQL Dump?

Thats correct.

Be aware though that some hosts charge a small fee for the extra work involved. For example FreeForums.org charges $30 US. And you still have to know how to st up the new SQL database and forum files ect. You should be able to get documentation on that from the phpbb.com ste.

Thanks FN. If it weren't for the help I get here I would have probably just quit.
