I do the same thing. I thought it was a done deal and solved. So I was basically stating to come back and put a message saying "Solved per URL LINK HERE"

But as for your issue, you'd be amazed how many hosts brag about their shared plans and really aren't meant for forums even though they say you can run them on their accounts. Believe me, I've gone through it myself.

I'm going to PM you about my host that has seemed to solve my problems.

I'll keep all of this in mind for the future. I think it *is* a good idea to follow up on threads with what you've done to solve problems and such. I've done it on other items and will continue to do so. I don't mean to sound snippy... It's just that I feel in over my head here, and I'm pretty sure that I have NO CLUE what I'm doing most of the time. lol

To do what vBadvanced does for YOU, would be some serious hard-core coding and a pain in the but to tweak and reshape as easily without having the same amount of server connections. The basic modules it comes with are clean code. Its when you get all these random ones that people create.

I have created some modules. I guess I'll have do do some research on whether they could be part of my problem. But I'm going to wait until I find out whether this new host works or not.

One thing I must say here and now is that Brian at vBAdvanced has been THE BEST support person in vBulletin world to me. He's answered all of my questions with patience and kindness and I've never felt ignored there like I have here and at vBulletin.com/forums Maybe it's just because it's a smaller feature, but he's a great guy. It never occurred to me that vBA would be my problem, but I'll be sure to ask him if it continues after this move.

It's ok. I'm just being too sensitive I guess. I just feel like I've begged for help in numerous places and am not really getting anywhere. And frankly HostGator's snippy attitude, 12 hour shutdown while ignoring emails, and overall lack of concern for anything has me feeling rather raw.
