In the admin cp I changed the forum url from "forums" to "content". Now all I see is my site with no styling and, can't log in.

Upload tools.php so u can reset it
That was my first thought but after looking at the contents of that folder I saw no instructions.

Upload it to your admincp then go to http://yoursite.com/admincp/tools.php remember to remove when done
You will find the tools.php file in the do not upload folder of the pack u can download from members area

Try "settings", it should change the url back to forums. It will also reset all other settings to their default settings as well.

If you have phpmyadmin access, you could change the setting in there, saving all your other settings as is.

I tried settings, it didn't work. I'm thinking doing a complete over right ?

It happens, sometimes I forget the simplest settings in vB, then I have to do a google search, and then when I see it, I say to myself, duhhhhhh! :)

One more question so I can save my styles. What folder contains the styles? I've got the images folder for them.

I agree this is the easiest fix. Go into phpadmin and into your settings table. Change it there. :)
