LOL - wish it hadn't been fixed. Just downloaded, pushed to the site and went to 'install'. It reported that I was already on the latest version 2.2.6 Patch 1. I stupidly hit the 'rebuild data' button or whatever it is on the screen (not fresh install) and my forum is dead.
My mistake all around. Was using a new FTP client, and I'm not sure what compelled me to press that tempting orange button, but I did, and I have no idea what it did. Just that the site was all of a sudden unavailable.
